Well, I benefitted from discounted car rental rates but on returning to TV after several months I found that over half of my mail was from AARP - car insurance, life insurance etc.
I have no problem throwing it in the trash, but they are certainly keeping the USPS in business.

I haven't followed them in years, but once upon a time, they're claimed to back seniors, but supported politicians that didn't. So, I cancelled my membership and never looked back. I never found any financial justification for being a member, there are many other ways to save as much or more.
