Save with AARP: It is NOT Just for Your Parents

Right before I turned 40, I got an invitation in the mail to join AARP and I freaked out. That’s for old people!!!

No. That’s for smart people who like to save money.

So a few years later and a bit wiser, I am an AARP member and I’m not 50 yet. Why? Because you can save on travel! AARP has lots of other perks.

There is NO minimum age to join and you can take advantage of some great benefits like 10% off gift cards for travel.

I recently had a client (who is much younger) book with me and she wanted to pay in all gift cards. I laughed and said “Are you an AARP member?” She said “Yeah. How’d you know?”

Answer: I am Luxe for Less

I used Rakuten to purchase my AARP membership ($12)

and got $6 back. My Chase credit card had an offer that gave me $8 back. So I actually made $2 when I bought my AARP membership!

AARP also sent me a FREE 5-port charging hub with membership. And you get a free membership for your spouse/partner.

And now I will buy travel gift cards and use the perks from AARP and get 10% off travel.

Happy Saving! Happy Traveling!
