I must say that one good investment I make annually is my AAA membership. I have a dollar amount in mind when I make business travel arrangements because I like to be a good steward for my organization. This is a self imposed limit because my company only tells those on the senior management team to be resourceful. They don't set dollar limits. I am sure if we abused that, there would be limits set, but we don't.
I will say that AAA has allowed me to stay in places that would have been out of my limit otherwise. For example, one hotel usually has rates of $189 but I can sometimes stay there for $129 with my AAA card. Much nicer than the typical chain.
Well, in planning my trip across country, some friends of our recommended a particular resort. I discovered that AAA will save us $100/night at this gem! That's a lot of money. Still a little out of my price range but since every other night on the trip will be using points, I think I can justify one night at this gorgeous, once in a lifetime resort. Take a look: WOW! I haven't committed because it is a hefty cancellation fee so I want to wait until we are closer, we are sure to be there, and I can part with our hard earned money. Seriously, $100 a night off? Silly but I almost want to do it just to save the money. OK, I know better than that.
So, guess what my tip is today: AAA Plus, you can't beat the peace of mind that comes with the roadside assistance.

Have a great time at The Fairmont Hotel in Lake Lousie - what a pretty setting!
Glad AAA is worthwhile in terms of being helpful with rates. $100 dollars a night off is a good deal.

It's still a bundle for one night, but I'd go too. It's beautiful. Go for it. We love AAA too.
Have a terrific day. :)
