AARP Rewards Online Community Budget Contest 2025

I like to earn points each day and then redeem them for sweepstakes and instant wins.  I've won several $10 gift cards and even a few $100 gift cards from the sweepstakes.  These definitely help out in my attempt to save money where ever I can.  I like to variety of options for gift cards - it's not the same every month and there are a lot of stores at which I regularly shop.

AARP Rewards gift cards to restaurants have helped increase our ability to go out for meals. I have also purchased gift cards at a discount to restaurants, grocery stores (Kroger and Walmart), home improvement stores (Lowes and Home Depot) and other stores. I even won $100 gift card for Walmart and have won a number of instant wins.

I I use gift cards to help with purchases. Many times trying new companies that I might not usually try. I also combine gift cards to make the price go down even further. Every little bit helps. 

Originally became an AARP member for savings alone, however, when I logged in and discovered all of the incredible articles, videos, training and volunteer opportunities, my perception completely changed. If any question comes up regarding Social Security, Taxes, Resumes and much more, the first place I look is AARP.com. The magazine has so many wealth, travel and celebrity articles that I enjoy on the commuter train. Earning of reward points that I use every morning to sign up for sweepstakes is so fun! The amount of discount cards available is immense, Christmas and gifting has never been so easy, allowing me to purchase throughout the year so December is not such a burden. I have even paid for an entire Princess Cruise with AARP gift cards. "Do you discount AARP members?" is my new favorite phrase wherever I go to shop, travel, eat and be entertained. Actually today I used the AARP benefit site to order FTD flowers with my AARP discount. The AARP card is in my phone wallet and ready to whip out at a moments notice. Discounts have become a great conversation starter, allowing more to come into the AARP community. From the moment I wake up to morning exercise videos to playing AARP games as I settle in for the night, AARP has become a major part of my life and wellness. Thank you for all the effort AARP teams put in, to their reputation and credibility, allowing us to enjoy life on a budget!

I booked thru the AARP/ Expedia site and saved on my hotels.

I booked through Expedia and AARP and saved loads!

Saving money these days is almost mandatory due to inflation. AARP helps with points and the ability to trade in or use toward gifts/ prizes. Watching my spending overall and being aware of needs vs wants is important. Today it is difficult to save but AARP is definitely helping and we really appreciate this!

I have been able to reduce my cost of everyday expenses by using my points to get gift cards for stores I spend cash at. The great variety of different gift cards allows me to pick from and use them at stores I already would be spending my money at. I’m always excited to see a new company in the gift card selection. When I use the gift card it’s like saving $5 off my purchase, but the best part is since it’s a gift card I can still use coupons along with it to save even more money.

   I enjoy the games and puzzles to help keep my mind sharp.  I earn points for gift cards that help with my budget.  I can keep my mind and tummy happy at the same time, thanks.

AARp Rewards is awesome in helping save money. Purchasing discounted gift cards is great for needed purchases as well as discounts at restaurants and travel. I use AARP rewards almost daily.
