PHOENIX - December 8, 2010: Whether looking to save on five golden rings or a partridge in a pear tree, consumers are looking to stretch their gift giving budgets this holiday season. One way many consumers can make their dollars go further this year is by taking advantage of savings, such as those available through AAA's Member Discounts program.

Last year, members saved $2.1 billion nationwide by showing their AAA card at participating retailers. This is an average savings of $93 per member, which is nearly twice the cost of a AAA Classic membership.

"We've partnered with more than 160,000 retail locations across the country to help our members save money throughout the year," said Jim Lehrer, vice president of member experience for AAA Arizona. "Many of these partners provide special offers during the holidays, helping members save on everything from stocking stuffers to big ticket items."

In the spirit of the season and to illustrate the discounts members are eligible to receive, AAA would like to highlight the following 12 discounts:
