Consider your current spending habits, thinking specifically about the type of businesses you frequently patronize. For example, favorite restaurants, retail stores, hotels, movie theaters, amusement parks and museums. Create a physical, or mental list of these establishments. Also include places where you have always wanted to shop, but previously believed you could not afford.
Use the “AAA TourBook” for your state, a “AAA Member Savings Guide” or visit AAA.com/discounts, to determine if any establishments you frequent, are current AAA discount providers. Look for the specific names of shops, hotels, restaurants, movie theater and amusement parks placed on your list, to discover your potential to save money, on any future purchases.
Sign up for e-mail alerts, at AAA.com/discounts. E-mail alerts will provide information on current opportunities for savings with discount providers in your specific area. Or if you have an iPhone and prefer, you can download a free application from the website, that will send the same information directly to your iPhone.
Go shopping at a retailer that you confirmed from your research, as a AAA discount provider. Take your membership card and current state issued, photo identification with you. At the time of your purchase, inform the individual handling your sale that you are a AAA member, and would like to obtain a member discount for the purchase. The cashier will ask for your membership card and photo identification. Verify that you were granted the appropriate member discount, on your sales receipt.
