Five Things to Know This Week with Sisters From AARP

5 Things to Know This Week

1

Our May Theme Is "Best Weekend Ever," so this is your reminder to let your benefits put in a little work. AARP members can unlock savings that make a weekend feel a little more luxe: hotel discounts, car-rental deals, dining perks, entertainment offers and getaway packages that help you say yes to the nicer version of your plans. Whether you’re thinking girls’ dinner, a quick road trip, a one-night reset or a little treat-yourself moment close to home, your membership can help you spend less and enjoy more.

A Whole Lot of Us Have Been Talking About Our Vote Lately, and for African Americans, the questions, outrage and anxiety showing up in our feeds and group chats feel all too familiar. We want to know our ballot will be counted, our voices will carry and nothing will stand in the way of us being heard. If you’re looking for clear, practical information on how voting by mail works and what to know before you cast your ballot, this guide can help.

It’s Almost School Vacation, and if a little fun with the grandkids has you thinking about Orlando, this is one of those moments when that AARP membership really comes through. You can save on Universal Orlando Resort tickets, get up to $60 off with a minimum 3-day purchase for Walt Disney World Resort tickets, and check out even more theme park and attraction discounts through AARP benefits.

Thinking About Solo Aging? If that question has been sitting in the back of your mind lately, you are not the only one. A lot of us are trying to think honestly and lovingly about what support, community and peace of mind could look like as we get older. This Senior Planet from AARP discussion group meets Thursday, May 28, at 3:00 PM ET on Zoom. Visit the event page for full details and joining information.

Nomorobo Is One of Those Benefits Caregivers Will Actually Use, and if you’re helping look after an older parent, auntie or loved one, you already know the phone can be a whole stress event. Nomorobo blocks robocalls and scam texts, and AARP members can get a discounted subscription through the new AARP collaboration. It’s the kind of practical protection that helps you worry a little less, especially if you’re the one family members call when something suspicious pops up on-screen.
