To change the pivot point, hit insert (or home on mac) and move the manipulator around. You can snap it to the grid by holding down x... I feel like I just answered this.

Snapping with 'V'

I only recently learnt thru a tutorial here that you can snap anything selected (pivot point Inc) By holding the V key and then using the middle mouse button click/drag on a vertex. This has improved/eased my work a great deal.

And to add to that, without going anywhere near the insert key, just hold d, x and MMB on the origin. Bam! Done. Or with vertices, hold d, v and MMB, like you said.
