Getting an AARP membership is a bad idea. Why? You pay THEM. Then THEY get paid AGAIN to sell your name to companies like Geico, Hartford Life, etc. Then YOU get bombarded by loads of companies by phone, email, and snail mail, wanting more of your money. And those companies WILL NOT take you off their lists, no matter how often you ask. And when you quit your AARP membership, the junk mail just keeps coming, because now they have your name! Thanks AARP!
Benefits are few-some deals here and there that can usually be found elsewhere online. I wish I had never joined, because now even AARP won't take me off their list! They are really doing a disservice to seniors.
