My girlfriend has a MBP that's a year old. She got it right before they released Lion. So it has Snow Leopard on it. I made a bootable flash drive and was wondering if I could install it on her MBP for free so she wouldn't have to pay for it? And if I do will it just upgrade all her stuff? I don't want it to erase everything else and make it "like" new.

Yes, at least if you do a clean install. I haven't try with upgrade.
