By Jim Donovan: Participating Goodwill’s in the Philadelphia (5-county) area have teamed up with AAA Mid-Atlantic for the 2nd Annual Luggage Trade-In/Trade-Up Program.

This initiative encourages the community to donate gently used luggage to Goodwill – preferably filled with unwanted clothing, shoes or household items—in return for discount vouchers good for the purchase of new luggage from local AAA Mid-Atlantic stores.

For every piece of gently used luggage dropped off at one of Goodwill’s donation centers between now and April 16th, donors will receive a discount voucher for the purchase of new luggage at participating AAA Mid-Atlantic stores in Delaware, Pennsylvania or New Jersey.

The coupon entitles the customer to 40 percent off a piece of Antler Luggage or $25 off a luggage purchase of $50 or more. Coupons are valid through April 30, 2011. For program details and a complete list of AAA Mid-Atlantic store locations, visit http://midatlantic.aaa.com/Travel/TradeInTradeUp
