Anyone can purchase savings bonds, the only difference is that, they are non-negotiable government bonds, non transferable and cannot be purchased or sold once the original purchase is carried out.
This governmental bonds are issued in face value denominations from $50 to $10,000, with local and state tax-free interest and semiannually adjusted interest rates.
Small adjustment for foreigners: you've got to have an SSN number, to buy. Then someone else may be added... Here's a perfect article: http://www.savings-bond-advisor.com/who-can-buy-savings-bonds/
FYI: paper bonds are sold now at a half of the face value (as of 12/2009).
