Some memberships will give you an actual discount when renting a car. The two best known memberships that give discounts on car rentals are: Sam’s Club and Triple A. At many car rental places, these are good for a 10-15% discount, though they can not be combined. It is one or the other. Always ask a car rental place ahead of time if they give a discount for these memberships. With how expensive renting cars can be, you want every discount you can get.
Having Sams Club or AAA membership will entitle you to some discounts or help, and it is always good to find out what exactly you qualify for ahead of time. Not only might AAA give you discounts on renting a car, and the road side assistance that they are famous for, but there is also a chance that the particular policy or membership you have with them might even carry a type of car rental insurance. Since this costs you more money than almost anything else, this would be a great deal. If you have an AAA credit card there is an excellent chance that they will automatically cover you with car rental insurance, as long as you charge the rental to that credit card.
