Tips for the cover letter:
Address it to an individual.
Personalise your letter by explaining why you want to work for them and why you are applying for that particular position.
Relate your CV to the vacancy by summarising the key points on your CV that fit the job for which you are applying.
Keep the letter concise.
Don't fall into the trap of not sending a covering letter if you send your CV by e-mail.

Three parts.
1. Introduce yourself
2. Tie in where you'd be applicable for the job and what "extra" you'll bring to the position.
3. Ask for the job and explain how you're interested.
Be formal. And yes, waste 39 cents - it's worth the money when you get the job. The act of opening the letter and seeing the actual pen print of your name does make a difference.

Explain your strengths and accomplishments and how that would benefit the company to which you are applying.
