AARP Rewards Holiday Savings & Budget Contest 2022

Family all decided to take a cruise, true Multi-generation trip. Used point to by the gift card to give everyone a starting point.

I use MyPoints.com to earn points to use on gift cards. The site allows me to shop at my favorite stores to receive point for every dollar spent. Plus, I earn points in various other ways they offer and through MyGiftCardsPlus; where I buy gift cards offered and earn points for each gift card bought. I spend while earning and then I treat myself with a gift card just for me after the holidays.

I've been saving a lot of the points I've earned this year for the holiday season, and am hoping to use points to get some treats to share with my husband for the holidays. Since I started with the Rewards Program, I've actually won some Instant Wins, and I have also "purchased" completely free gift cards!  In the past when I've had a reward to share, it's been a big spirit-lifter for us both! 

I check daily which cards are available and that are near me. Whenever the appropriate grocery store cards pop up, I am there! I use the cards to purchase items on the need list for the local food pantry.

I was so excited to see the AARP gift card for the Christmas Tree Shops recently! I always buy my holiday cookie tins at the CTS, so I am purchasing a gift card for myself for this year. (I also regularly enter in the AARP sweeps for a CTS gift card and hope that I will get lucky and win!) My daughter loves Sephora and I have a gift card that I purchased via AARP Rewards for her as a holiday gift. And, finally, I also have a a GAP gift card that I purchased a while back and am looking forward to using it to purchase a holiday scarf for myself. My budget is tight, so the savings on gift cards is greatly appreciated. And, it's fun to enter into the sweeps with hopes of winning.

I love the discounted and free gift cards with points to restaurants.  I use those to include in my holiday cards to my high school and college nieces/nephews, and to those who I know would love an evening out, but can't easily foot the entire bill.  Cheers!

One of the most meaningful aspects of the holidays to me is the time I get to spend with others.  Using the AARP Rewards, I am looking forward to meals out at a favorite restaurant with family and/or friends where I will get to spend some quality one-on-one time with them while enjoying a meal thanks to AARP!

I collect rewards points from taking survey's and quizzes and plan to use those points to enter sweepstakes or buy gift cards to save for a rainy day or share it with family and friends.

I like to purchase egift cards from stores I know are local and give as birthday or Holiday gift to family.  If lucky enough to win on the daily instant wins, I like to stack with purchases
