So, I got the free Special Edition upgrade back when it first came out, and have never bought any Creation Club stuff other than with the 100 free tokens or whatever they give you. I've been doing a playthrough on Legendary over the past couple of weeks, and loaded up my game last night to find that I now have all of the Creation Club mods that are supposed to come with the Anniversary Edition (Fishing, Survival Mode, Rare Curios, etc.). So if you already have Skyrim SE, fire it up and see if you got the CC stuff for free.
Edit: I guess I should read my damn screen more often. Everyone who already owns Skyrim SE (regardless of whether you buy AE) gets the following CC packs for free:
Survival Mode
Fishing
Rare Curios (adds a bunch of alchemy/enchanting goodies)
Saints and Seducers (adds some NPC followers and a storyline)

There are some CC stuff that came with the update, the other stuff is purchased.
