I\'m looking into some different options for investing for DD\'s education.  We\'ve been playing it extremely safely thus far, but I think it\'s time to look into some tax-free vehicles.   If anyone else is interested in hearing about what I learn, I\'d be happy to post my findings here.

On savingadvice.com, someone directed me to this site for CA\'s 529 plan:

Years ago I had intentions of starting a scholarshare account for my stepsons.  

The people that did our 401K for work (it was 403B since we were educational, but same idea) had a seminar to explain it to us.  Sounded really good.

You might want to see if the co. that DH works for has scholarshare as a pre-tax deduction from his paycheck.  That\'s a simple way to do it.
