Just an fyi with the Saks cards offered here.  While Chapter 11 is a reorganization, and companies can emerge fine out of it, I’d be very careful with getting gift cards for Saks.  Saks Global just filed for Chapter 11.  Might not affect gift cards right now, but just a heads up, as you never know in the near future how this will be handled.  I don’t shop at Saks, but just saw the gift cards here, and wanted to alert people just in case 

     As I’m looking at the Term of the Bed Bath and Beyond gift card being offered here for points now, I’m remembering that I thought they only had a website now. So the terms made sense. Since the physical stores closed and bankruptcy reorganization.      The terms say this card offered can only be used on website.  I thought I had heard some states had physical stores starting to appear. ?  Just curious, if anyone had  been able to use it in there, since the terms say online only.    

We know staying motivated can be a challenge—but AARP Rewards can help! How do you use Rewards to set goals or stick with them?

If I entered multiple different gift card sweepstakes all in different days in November 2025, when will the winners be posted. As far as I can tell, by searching through the website, I don't see anything about the gift card sweepstakes winners for the month of November. Its as if you have to dig, just to find out who the winners are. Frustrated 

Can’t redeem my points so they always expire   

We have our six confirmed winners!  We loved reading through all the posts—there were so many great ones that picking the winners was tough!   Here are our final six winning posts that have claimed prizes!   rg22109724:  https://community.aarp.org/t5/AARP-Rewards-Connect/Share-the-Joy-of-Savings-AARP-Rewards-Community-Contest-2025/m-p/2638291#M9132    BertyBgone:  https://community.aarp.org/t5/AARP-Rewards-Connect/Share-the-Joy-of-Savings-AARP-Rewards-Community-Contest-2025/m-p/2644522#M9277    JaneB265379: https://community.aarp.org/t5/AARP-Rewards-Connect/Share-the-Joy-of-Savings-AARP-Rewards-Community-Contest-2025/m-p/2644729#M9298    ronvogel:  https://community.aarp.org/t5/AARP-Rewards-Connect/Share-the-Joy-of-Savings-AARP-Rewards-Community-Contest-2025/m-p/2638278#M9129   act1751:  https://community.aarp.org/t5/AARP-Rewards-Connect/Share-the-Joy-of-Savings-AARP-Rewards-Community-Co

Has anyone else encountered the same problem as me, unable to use the AARP One-Year Membership Card promo code? I redeemed 20,000 points for a one-year AARP membership, but now I can't enter the promo code.

It now looks like it now takes 200 points for each entry for a $100 gift card sweepstakes.  And instead of 20 winners there are now only 15.  The cuts keep coming and the membership dues keep rising.

What was your favorite AARP Rewards redemption this year?

 Redemption of gift cards amount to $5 and purchasing them saves you $2, $3, or $5 at the most. Years ago gift cards had value of $25 when redeeming for points. Once my membership expires I won’t be renewing. AARP need to make it worthwhile again.

 Sweepstakes entry go up 25% Inflation 2.7%  that's quite a disparity

The following error comes up when trying to redeem any of the instant wins.Not FoundThe requested URL was not found on this server.Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

 There used to be a post of what the weeks daily deals would be. Is that discontinued or I just can't find it?

Just noticed a pattern in this video Blackjack and wanted to share.  Almost Every time I pushed with dealer, I doubled the next hand and won.  Doesn’t always work, but works more than not. Edit to add:  Setting of 1 deck 

This year 2025 has been an "interesting" year indeed for the AARP Rewards Program. LOTS of changes. Thank you SO MUCH for those who came to my aid as I muddled through things trying to LEARN. And WE HAVE LOST TOO MANY of our old timers!!! 😭 But that is life and I will ALWAYS "treasure" the memories of the past Rewards Program. A past that will NEVER return. Wishing ALL a totally AWESOME 2026 in your "real" life!!! 😉 Nicole 💛

All of a sudden I am not getting points for steps.  It shows my Apple Health is synced ( I even unsynced and resynched). It had given me points every other day the last 4 days (my apple health shows I have walked 5000 or 10000 each of those days). AARP was never able to fix the Fitbit sync issue which started about a year ago,  so I gave up and started using Apple health. It requires my synching my Fitbit to Apple health through another app…. So it is a pain….. but now I’m not getting all my points !!!! Beyond frustrating that this app is such a mess on so many levels. 

Please fix the link to the Instant Win Rules for the Total Wine Instant Win.  Right now the link is just going to aarp.org.
