AARP Rewards Holiday Savings & Budget Contest 2023

Share how you use the Rewards Catalog to support your holiday giving and budgeting for a chance to win one of eight (8) $50 gift cards.  

 

Examples from last year's winners posts:

"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!"  

 

"This is my first year as an AARP Member.  I love learning through the different activities, to save up Reward Points, which helps me to purchase our favorite restaurant gift cards, for fast food, or dining out for special events, or for grocery shopping.  I love to give these gifts cards to my adult daughter, to enjoy for an easy dinner out where she doesn't have to cook after working her daily shift.  It shows my appreciation, and it is a big savings on items we would most likely purchase anyway."

 

Runs from 10/18 - 12/12/23. Click here for rules

      Last year my niece had just bought her first home, a condo, so I sent her a years subscription to DIY magazine and a Home Depot gift card using my AARP points. Then I  watched as she updated and decorated the condo to truly make it hers. Seeing how I cared made us closer.

        My son in law loves Jersey Mike’s so I was able to buy gift cards from ARRP for a Christmas present!

          I have been a member for some time now and I have not used any rewards points as of yet. I am not certain if I am fully knowledgeable about how to use them. I will do more research so that I am benefitting from being an AARP member.

            My family means the world to me and being able to give them the gift cards makes my heart so much lighter and filled with love and happiness and it’s because AARP helps to allow us to afford more gift cards for my family and makes my money stretch farther and allows me chances to win gift cards. I also love the discounts we get and the articles, games and puzzles! Happy Holidays Everyone!🎄

              I haven't used my points yet and I've been a member for a few years now. It would be nice to win a gift card for some different foods for the holidays. I keep reading anything and everything especially all the questions. Thank y'all and GOD BLESS

                Using AARP Rewards Catalog along with Black Friday sales can really help you save this holiday season. This is how my wife and I utilize AARP Rewards to save on holiday shopping and budgeting. We try to pair up sales, our gift cards from AARP and Near You Deals to maximize our savings and have fun with AARP while saving. For example, we had 2 $10 Adidas gift cards from the rewards catalog from February which we spent 19.000 points each, to obtain the gift card. We then waited until the Black Friday Sale went live and purchased a pair of Adidas shoes regularly priced at $70, but on sale for $21 and free shipping. We try to pair up sales, our gift cards from AARP and Near You Deals to maximize our savings and have fun with AARP while saving. Unfortunately, there were no offers for Adidas in the Near You Deals, (but there was Puma).

                  This is my first year as an AARP member. I use the discounts for eating out , gift cards , gas discounts , playing games , and entering drawings. My family and I would benefit from the Rewards Catalog by sharing for the upcoming holidays. This is the first holiday without my dad and so I have no clue on how to exactly celebrate it anymore.

                        I would buy food and donate to the local food banks for citizens who live in food deserts.

                          Heads up on near me discounts—even though a merchant is listed, you should call them to verify they are in fact accepting the coupons BEFORE you spend your points and print the coupon!  Many times I have found a merchant and printed the coupon only to discover they are not taking their own offer.  Then you call AARP who might refund your points but you still don’t have a coupon to use!  Enjoy your visit!
