Submitted by Nancy Woodard, August 19, 2009
Best App for Roadside Discounts
  AAA Discounts has been noted as one of the best iPhone apps in a recently published paperback titled just that ... “Best iPhone Apps - The Guide for Discriminating Downloaders.”

Author Josh Clark "stress-tested thousands of titles from the App Store emporium to hand pick apps that will make the biggest difference in every aspect of your life." Clark's app picks are listed by category and AAA Discounts falls under "on the road." Clark's entry for AAA Discounts notes the app's convenience, mapping to nearby businesses offering AAA member discounts and capability to "connect you with bargains." The book is available on AAA.com/barnesandnoble.

AAA Discounts was also among 16 free and paid Apple iPhone apps highlighted in a full-page ad in the Aug. 6 edition of The Wall Street Journal and Aug. 7 edition of USA Today. All apps featured in the ad – including AroundMe, TripIt, Local Picks and FlightTrack Pro – are designed to ease summer vacation planning.

AAA Discounts is a free, GPS-based app that displays retail locations of AAA Show Your Card & Save® partners based on the user's location.  There are more than 110,000 AAA Show Your Card & Save locations in North America.

Get AAA Discounts via an iPhone by clicking on the App Store icon and searching “AAA Discounts” or by downloading iTunes on your computer and searching “AAA Discounts” in the App Store.  The application uses components of AAA’s TripTik® Travel Planner in combination with iPhone GPS capabilities.  While everyone can view locations offering discounts, only members can take advantage of savings and access roadside assistance. When members use the iPhone to place a call to AAA, their GPS location is transmitted along with the call. Non-members can apply for membership via the app.
