II always check for discounts and deals on hotels. Most of my travel these days involve the automobile so it's important to keep the car well maintained and use gas buddy to find the best gas prices.

Always check aarp for discounts, there are always new offers, gift cards, discounts happy to find all there is available. Travel can be frustrating but always an adventure, all the bumps in the road become the most memorable looking back not as bad.Best advice pack things to wear that mabye last wear and can be donated or tossed so you can have room in your bag for new finds, memories of your trip.

Use discounted gift cards, check online for tickets b/c sometimes they'll be discounted if you purchase ahead of time, and check for a city pass which may be available for the city you're visiting

Holland America gave us a $200 onboard credit through AARP this summer. It was great!  I always book hotel rooms getting the AARP rate.

I purchased a $500 gift card for AirB&B at a discount on the Rewards website. Unfortunately I am still waiting to receive it via email. It has been 4 days. Really??? I can see that my payment was processed so that’s not the issue. My trip is in 2 weeks and I’m watching the homes I picked getting booked up. I was willing to accept 24-48 hours for processing but this is unacceptable. I am experiencing needless stress before my vacation. Thanks a lot.

I use the aarp gift cards to purchase my cruise fare. It saves me 10%. I also buy gift cards for restaurants in the areas we're visiting.
