    It is a common occurrence and is only a temporary charge. It will disappear before your next statement.
    You have something coming due and have authorized an automatic renewal is the usual reason. This can happen a month or more before your payment is due. This allows them time to contact you should your Credit Card number have changed and your coverage will not lapse due to non payment. It will drop off and you will pay no interest on the amount.
    If they do not do this and you forget to update your account you could be on the road and have no roadside coverage for example.
  • May have nothing to do with Good Sam! Your account may have been hacked.
    I had a similar $1 charge from Amazon a while back. My bank caught it and issued me a new debit card with a different number. They said that hackers often choose small amounts because, even if you notice them, you may assume it is just a service charge.
