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 

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 💛

I don’t know why I hadn’t done this before, as I used it in my old computer days. Boolean Search Operators. Im still tinkering with it, but wanted to see if it would work if I filtered out Greeting cards, guides, and subscriptions, coloring books.  So far so good.  Trying to see if other strings will work for say New, or Points with plus operator after. Try this this  1.Once in Redeem for all Rewards   2. Go to Sort  area and you’ll see the SEARCH  box next to it it. ( where it gives an example you can put in like restaurant) 3 Put this below in that box which is what you are going to search. No spaces between the minus and word you want to exclude from your search, but space between next word -Subscription -Guide -Coloring -Greeting  I’m still tinkering but so far works the way I want.  Hoping something doesn’t fall through the cracks. Next up will be if I can do just Points only or New.  With plus sign.&n

I’m remembering 3 cards per month allowed for points, correct?

Anybody who can help me get to the "Official Entry Form"?

I have found there are gift cards out there for points that do not show up when you filter for points.  Home Depot, Ulta, DSW, Petsmart, Sheetz, AMC and Bass Pro.  I found them by searching with the word 'gift card' but you have to look through a lot to find them. So just search for the particular one you want.  Happy hunting.

Do you plan your redemptions or spend points as you earn them?

When will AARP post the winners of the August sweepstakes drawings? If the drawing can't be held because of the loss of entries during the recent AARP website hack... Could our points at least be REFUNDED? Each account has a record of what sweepstakes were entered and how many points were redeemed. Waiting for a response...

It’s now mid-November, and AARP has still not posted the September 2025 sweepstakes winners list. The August list was delayed, and now September is missing entirely. Members invest time and points into these sweepstakes. When results are delayed without explanation—and when sweepstakes are quietly extended beyond their original end dates—it undermines trust and raises serious questions about fairness. AARP, please clarify:When will the September winners list be posted?Why were some sweepstakes extended into October without prior notice?What steps are being taken to prevent future delays?Transparency matters. If there’s a technical issue, say so. If rules changed, disclose it. Silence is not acceptable.

Welcome to the "glitch of the month" club. This month's latest glitch is that the "For Points" filter is not working when new points-only gift cards are added. Or maybe this should be "glitch of the day" club, since there are multiple glitches that happen each month.  🙄
