I was really surprised at how good the Apple educational discount was, though I most recently forgot to use it. My school had a "custom store" online, but I'm pretty sure it was the same as the regular discount anyway.Maybe the people paying for Photoshop at all are professionals who need more than Elements anyway, but this is a pretty good deal.
You can rip off Apple for student discounts even without an ID card.
I think you can get travel discounts on flights, hotels, etc. depending on where you're going.
My dad got me Microsoft Office for $20 from some hospital thing- it's not educational, but it's worth checking if your place of work or that of a friend/family member has a similar program.
