Have you ever locked your keys in your car?  How about ran out of gas on the freeway?  Have you ever gone to start your car in the morning to find out that your battery is dead because you left the dome light on the night before?  Anybody ever have a blowout on the freeway?  There are so many unforeseen calamities that can occur when you own a car and of course they happen at the worst times.  The two or three hours it takes to solve the problem can cost you an easy $50 in lost wages, not to mention the cost of buying a gas can, towing charges, fix a flat or what ever the thing is you need.  Your clothes get dirty as you struggle with the blown out tire, or fiddle with the carburetor, and if you’re lucky 2 or 3 hours later you’re back on the road.  Well, if you had this 1 item you could avoid all this pain and frustration AND make money in the process.

Every man, woman or teen who drives a car must have a AAA card.  Membership to AAA is a measly $50 a year and will save you from all the problem situations listed above and more.  If you have a flat, AAA will change it for you.  If your car won’t start, AAA will charge your battery.  If you run out of gas, AAA will bring you a gallon so you can make it to the gas station.  The best part about the service is that they will usually be there within 5 to 30 minutes!  Let’s see if your best friend will get there that fast.

Each one of the above situations will cost you at least 1 to 3 hours to solve on your own, and that’s assuming you know how to change a tire, have jumper cables, own a gas can, etc.  With AAA you don’t need any of that, just their little AAA card.  If you’re not convinced by now that the $50 per year membership is a great deal, don’t worry.  I haven’t even told you the best part of the deal yet.

Very rarely in life do you spend $50 for something and get $100 value in return.  As stated earlier, 1 car mishap will get you $100 service if you have the AAA card, but if nothing happens to your car you still have many opportunities to turn your AAA membership into hundreds of dollars of savings.  AAA offers discounts on:

Car Rentals

Hotel Stays

Plane Fare

Vacation Packages

Car Insurance

Museums

Restaurants

Amtrak

Plus a lot more 

In fact, over 100,000 vendors will give you a discount if you just show them your AAA card.  Stay in a hotel for a week and get $100 off with AAA.  Buy 2 tickets from California to Texas and save $100.  Get the picture?  Your $50 card can save you hundreds of dollars.  That’s like you buying $50 worth of beer at the club and the bartender letting you make $200 worth of mixed drinks for you and your buddies.  I almost feel bad sharing this because AAA might change their rules, but for now read this article and share it with ANYONE who does not have a AAA card.  They will thank you for it.
