I've been a AAA member since I had a car, the discounts at tourist places, hotels (I get better rates with AAA than my employer with their airline discount), rental cars (Hertz is 15% off), stores, trips, restaurants, etc. adds up, (look in the newsletter they give lists each month for discounts) and have been a life saver for breakdowns back when I drove old cars. I also have the AAA credit card, which gives me money off my gas for using it for everything else. (never paid a cent in interest yet) Having the credit card has saved me more than once when I went to use it and had people ask if I was a AAA member.
Here in MA, the AAA insurance agent was a huge help getting my cars and trailer transferred to a MA reg. My parents are going on a trip to see the Panama canal, we were talking about travel and security issues abroad, I told them their best bet was to talk to the AAA travel agents about all of that as they would have the latest info. They will also do the Passport photos and help you with the process. Of course for me this is a big help as I live less than a mile from the nearest office.
AAA roadside assistance will help you with your TV, they won't do much for your trailer from what I hear.
