Smart spending for festive bliss: maximizing your holidays with CAA Membership

There are two undeniable things about the holiday season. First, it’s a wonderful chance to connect with family, friends, and loved ones, and second, it can get expensive quickly. And when you factor in the inflation we’re all facing, the holidays may be more financially difficult on families this year, with the price of groceries, gas, and utilities all having gone up.

To help you make the most of every dollar this year, here are some ways you can save money with a CAA Membership.

Review your expenses and save on everyday purchases

Start by evaluating your regular expenses, from utilities to groceries and housing. List out and review all of your regular expenses, including things like utilities, groceries, housing, and other recurring memberships, and find ways to maximize your money.

For example, if you drive, auto insurance is a necessity. However, if you drive less than 12,000km each year, but if you have a traditional auto insurance policy, you could be paying for more than you need.

CAA offers MyPaceTM, Canada's only pay-as-you-go auto insurance payment program. CAA MyPace1 lets drivers reduce and manage their car insurance premiums without sacrificing full, 24/7 coverage. It’s perfect for people who don’t do a lot of driving, like remote workers, people who work close to home, or people who primarily use public transit for their daily commute but drive for errands and weekend trips.

CAA is Canada’s only auto insurance program created specifically for people who don’t drive much - like stay-at-home parents, remote workers, or people who primarily use public transit for their daily commute.

On average, CAA MyPace policy holders save 50% compared to traditional auto insurance. You don’t need to be an existing CAA Member to get a MyPace policy, but if you are already a CAA Member, you’ll get up to 20% off your policy.

Plus, as all drivers know, the cost of fuel has gone up in the past year. Luckily, CAA Members can save on fuel, helping you save even more when filling up the tank for holiday road trips to see the family.

Save on holiday shopping with loyalty/rewards programs

All CAA Members have access to CAA Rewards, a global program with over 126,000 partners around the world, where you can save on shopping, entertainment, restaurants, health, fuel, and more - which comes in handy when shopping for presents during the holidays.
