Money Saving Reasons To Join AARP

Look I’m only 45 and I’ve been a member of AARP for several years now. You might be thinking, “I thought AARP was only for people of retirement age”. Maybe you’re thinking “What do I get out of an AARP membership that would be worth my while” Well the biggest reason for me joining, saving money.

Consumer Cellular customers save 5% off your monthly bill

I’m going to be honest, this was the main reason I signed up for AARP. We had AT&T or years. A coworker told me about consumer cellular (which uses AT&T and T-mobile towers and I was able to keep my phone number). Saved us a bunch on our cell phone bill to start. But then when I found out I could save another 5% by being an AARP member, well, I was sold.

Savings on Walmart+

So, I’m too late for this one. This seems to be a newer offering. And it seems it only applies to new Walmart+ customers that sign up via the AARP site. But you save $20/year off the cost of a Walmart+ membership as an AARP member.

Attraction and Theme Park Savings

AARP members can go through the site to find savings on attractions, amusement parks, and more with your AARP membership.

AARP reward points

AARP gives you lots of opportunities to earn reward points. Earn points by completing challenges, watching videos, learning with their education materials, linking your smartwatch to keep track of steps, just visting the website, and lots more.

With the reward points you can cash them in for discounts on gift cards, enter sweepstakes, subscription services, and more.

AARP’s Black Friday Deal

Right now AARP is offering an awesome deal on membership sign ups. So not only do you save on your membership you get to take advantage of any or all of the savings I’ve listed and then some.

Right now you can get your AARP membership for $9/year when you sign up for a 5 year membership. You also get a FREE gift when you sign up!

This deal won’t last though, grab it while you can!

September 17 is National Voter Registration Day

On November 5th 2024, the American people will vote for their next president among other political positions. But in order to vote you need to be registered before the election. Each state has their own voter registration deadline.

According to NPR voter registration deadline in Pennsylvania is Monday October 21. That’s for all ways to register: online, by mail, or in person. NPR has a helpful list of deadlines for voter registration in each state and territory. Several are coming up soon . If you’re not sure if you’re registered they also have links to check your voter registration status for each state.

I’m here to call all Pennsylvanians to consider registering to vote. You can do it online, it takes less than 10 minutes, and you’ll get in before the October 21, 2024 deadline to register. And, of course, it’s free.

Pennsylvania online voter registration link

Pennsylvania is always a major factor in the presidential races. A swing state that has a whopping 20 electoral college votes. So if you think your vote doesn’t make a difference, think again.

If you’ve never voted before, the process is pretty simple. You can vote by mail or in person (but never both). I prefer to go in person. I’m in a small town so it usually only takes me a few minutes to get a ballot, fill it out and submit it. The poll workers are helpful in getting you your ballot, where to submit it, etc. Pay attention to the hours of your local polling places. In my experience, going earlier in the day, if possible, is better than waiting until the last two hours that your polling place is open.

If you’re curious about how many electoral votes your states has, you can checkout this helpful list from the National Archive.

Just FYI Puerto Rico, your voter registration deadline is September 21, 2024 so don’t delay in registering. The next one coming up will be South Carolina. South Carolina your in-person voter registration deadline will be October 4, 2024 followed by online voter registration deadline of Oct 6.

If you do not register by the deadline for your state you will not be able to vote in this year’s presidential election. So take the time to get registered or check your registration now!

Hot Sam’s Club Deal! $15 Membership!

If you’re been thinking about getting a Sam’s Club membership, this is a great time to do it.

Honestly, my closest Sam’s Club is a 45 minute drive away but I still have a membership. Why? We make 2, in person trips a year and really load up. We stock up on things like toilet paper, paper towels, baking supplies, snacks for school, garbage bags, laundry detergent, etc.

Of course we grab the good deals and some of their fresh produce, frozen foods, and bakery deals. Which reminds me of a tip, take a cooler, maybe two coolers if you have the room and do stock up trips. I tend to take two coolers and put refreezable ice packs in them to keep the frozen and refrigerated food cold until we get home.

I usually end up placing about two online orders a year too for fill-ins or seasonal items. We have a basic membership so we do have to pay for shipping. If you think you’ll do more online ordering the Plus membership gets you free shipping.

So I know you’re ready for the deal. Save $35 off a basic or plus membership at Sam’s Club. That means a basic membership is only $15! That’s for one year of Sam’s Club savings. The $35 off also works on the Plus membership. This is a limited time deal. This is the perfect time to grab it for early holiday shoppers, stocking up on Halloween candy, or getting holiday baking supplies.

Other Membership Fees Going Up? Join Club for Only $15*! Ends Soon. *Terms Apply. See site for details.
