I use my phone to access the earn activities. The quizzes seem the best for building up points.  They are 450 points if your a member.  I've never won any of the monthly prizes, but have won instant prizes.  The Super Play instant prizes give you higher odds.  Always have 20,000 spare points in case an option to buy a prize using points appears (usually only $5 gift certificate, now).

Be Consistent ... as with most anything, being persistent will pay off. The Resource Library is a wealth of information (and inspiration) - I use all of the Meditation tools, Workouts and Yoga and love "exercising" my brain with Quizes and Games.

As soon as I get an email with a way to earn more points, I don't skip by it or delete it until I complete all possible activities on that email.  That way, I stay on top of it and not let any opportunities get by me!  My strategy works!

Everyday I make it a point to  visit the Earn page and participate in at least 3 activities (videos or quizzes) and then I go and play a Right Again! Trivia Challenge. All of these earn me rewards while keeping my brain active and sharp. If you are looking at a quick way to earn points and you want to stay up on what is going on in the world today, this is a good way to do it.

Watch for the AARP special membership renewal deals. I saved $4.00 on membership fees by signing up for auto renewal, plus I received 2,000 points for doing that, and a $10 Amazon gift card. You can't beat that with a stick!

I start each day with doing games and quizzes to earn points on the website and then check for any new deals.  I have earned several gift cards over the past few years that I enjoy using and sharing with others.  I then do wordle for the day and head off to the gym for a few hours.  During the pandemic I enjoyed participating in the trivia nights as well as the Movies for Grownups and the workouts.  It really helped me feel less isolated.  I like doing the crossword puzzles and word and number puzzles on the site and it's always exciting to see you have added something new.

ispend my time healing others.  We will be taken in a Haitian studen who just graduated from 2-year college at the top of his class with top honors.  The house where he was living was sold.  we are taking him in so he has a place to live and I am a former cook book author, so looking forward to preparing meals for him along with my sons.  Often, i bake treats to surprise a neighbor,  when i have a chance. I walk around the neighborhood for exercise.

I use a tracker to see how many steps I take.  It really encourages me to see how many steps I take and it really makes me want to walk even more  especially since I don’t run.  I am so pleased!

I walk everyday, so it is easy to earn points for walking specific amounts.  My iPhone is synced with the tracker and I receive points. An extra benefit, outside of AARP is listening to podcasts and audiobooks.  Am I not aware of any AARP podcasts?

You need accumulated points to enter sweepstakes and instant win cards.  Some online games and crossword puzzles (not all Member Only) award these points (usually 300) for even modest performance.  I play nearly every day and, even after recent entries, have over 29000 points so I can increase total entries for sweepstakes I like.
