Our favorite ways to save this fall:

THINK BEYOND THE BACKPACK. A wardrobe upgrade for kids who never stop growing is more affordable with clothing and shoe discounts offered by national partners, local malls, department stores and other shops. See AAA shopping discounts.

TIME FOR A PHONE? AAA members who are Sprint customers can elect to have Sprint cover the cost of AAA Basic membership renewal, for as long as they remain Sprint customers. Learn more.

Smart shopping is always an option, even if last-minute needs force you to pull an all-nighter. Just visit AAA.com/Discounts or let the AAA Mobile app direct you to discounts. This free GPS-based app displays retail partners near you and allows you to personalize your display to see discounts you are most likely to use.

The average AAA member who uses AAA Discounts & Rewards saves more than $86. Use this benefit when you do your school shopping and you can easily top that and go to the head of the class!
