Disclosure: I’m participating in the CAA South Central Ontario Spot the Partner program with SJ Consulting. All opinions are 100% my own.

I’m going into my third month of being a CAA Member and I’ve been loving all the perks so far! Not only do I have peace of mind if I run into trouble with my car while traveling, but I’m also saving $$$. Since I’m the only one supporting our family right now, every dollar I can save counts.

If you’re traveling this summer, make sure you check out the CAA partners in the area you’ll be visiting. I recently wrote a post about where to go to save money in Niagara Falls, ON. This summer I’m sticking close to home. We moved to Pembroke at the beginning of June and I’m still getting set up. Thankfully, there are many CAA partners in my local area and online at the CAA eStore. Today I want to share with you a few of the partners I visited in July.

East Side Mario’s

I missed the unlimited salad and breadsticks that East Side Mario’s serves with entrées. Our home in NS was remote and the closest East Side Mario’s was a four drive round trip to Halifax. Here in Pembroke, I live 5 minutes from the restaurant! The Pembroke location recently underwent a major renovation. It looks fabulous! Their Caesars are spicy, but so good!

Show your CAA membership card to save 10% on your purchase at East Side Mario’s. We don’t eat out too often, but when we do it’s usually at East Side Mario’s. I love the food and the savings!

Petro-Canada

I often visit our local Petro-Canada gas station to fuel up my car. As a CAA Member, I earn 20% more Petro-Points. If you don’t have a Petro-Points card, you can easily get one at your local Petro-Canada gas station for free. You’ll also need to login to your Petro-Points account and register your CAA membership card to be eligible for the extra 20%.

When I filled up my car in July, the attendant told me that I could also convert my Petro-Points into CAA Dollars. 1,000 Petro-Points converts to 1 CAA Dollar.

Walmart.ca

I shop at Walmart.ca ALL THE TIME. Did you know that Walmart.ca is in the CAA eStore? From now on, I’m using the CAA eStore to shop on Walmart.ca. I’ll still be able to have the great selection and free shipping on my order, but I’ll also be earning 4% back in CAA Dollars. I recently purchased some items for kitchen at Walmart.ca.

Shopping via the CAA eStore is easy. Just visit the CAA eStore, find Walmart.ca and click Shop Now. You’ll then be asked to provide your CAA membership number so you can collect the CAA Dollars on your purchase. Then click Continue and you’ll be redirected to Walmart.ca where you can shop as normal. Within 90 days, you’ll see the CAA Dollars in your account.

Become a CAA Member

Access to exclusive savings and rewards is only of the many benefits of having a CAA membership. I’ve talked to quite a few friends and family members who thought the only benefit was the roadside assistance.  I said that is only one of the perks! Then I went on to list all the other reasons why I love being a CAA Member.

As a CAA Member, you’ll receive

• 24/7 Roadside Assistance
