Basically you set up an account with them and you save money for college from things like shopping at the grocery store to ordering flowers online. It's by no means going to save enough for your child's tuition cost, but it's free and they give you money just for scanning your Kroger card (for example). Great tips!

Something that a lot of people also overlook is a Roth IRA. Any money you put in is after-tax, and you can withdraw any of it down the line with no penalties to save for your childrens education.
