The AB blood type, especially pertaining to plasma, can be donated to people of all blood types (i.e. if I have the blood type B and need a transfusion, I can use your plasma with no complications). So in that regard it is very desirable by the blood banks.But in most cases, if you donate once the blood banks will continue to ask you to donate again regardless of blood type.
You can buy a kit on wardsci.com. It is a lot less exspensive to just ask your doctor to do it. When you go to donate blood they will see what type you are then.

You can order a simple blood type kit from amazon.com for as low as $13 and use at home to determine your blood type. You can also check your blood type at any blood drive locations (places that ask people to donate blood).
