SAVE MONEY ON TRAVEL DEALS

Corn was off 4 1/4 to off 5 1/4, soybeans were off 15 1/2 to off 17 3/4, wheat was off 12 1/4 to off 13 and oats were off 4 1/2 to off 5.

Corn futures fell despite a larger-than-expected 5.7 percent rise in the fourth-quarter gross domestic product. Wheat prices dropped as Algeria completed a tender for 500,000 metric tons. Reports that China would switch to South American sources undermined soybean prices Friday.
