Membership is not that expensive annually. I belong to FMCA as I like the magazine, I find the Goose Egg ID starts some nice conversations in campgrounds, and I have attended and enjoyed a few of their larger regional rallies. I belong to Goods Sam as the discount at Camping World usually covers most of the membership, possibly all if I make a few larger purchases, and the minimal discount at campgrounds added on for sure covers the membership. I get the AAA magazine from my son's membership, I really have no use for the AAA other services. I could live without the magazine, it seldom applies to RV travel, but still since I get it anyway I read it.
