I use points and Daily Deals to purchase gift cards all year, to places my adult children enjoy.  I can gift them the cards, or go to the store and purchase gifts using the cards.

  I always check the internet sites such as Amazon to determine the best value as to gifts to purchase.

Yesterday an appliance of ours went on the fritz and it couldn't be repaired.  After research, I found the appliance I wanted and it was on sale at Lowe's. Viola!  When I earn rewards points on AARP, I trade them in for $5 gift cards to places I need. And I had two gift cards to Lowe's for a total of $10.  I then purchased $100 gift cards to Lowe's on the redeem rewards site at an 8% discount.  So my appliance was on sale and then I saved an extra 10% on top of that because of the AARP rewards program. THAT is how I saved my Christmas budget from being raided. Thank you AARP.

   Hello AARPers!  I combine my 25% AAA discount along with the opportunity to buy a Cheryl's discount using points to get great savings on cookies, gift baskets, etc.

The benefit of Consumer Cellular is a monthly savings that I really like butthere are more. I enjoy the instant win program and getting $10.00 of local eateries. My older Brother recently lost his wife and as a widower, I enjoy dropping off $10.00 to a restaurant or fast food to him. He can virtually eat free and it gets him out of the house. He is 80 and I enjoy helping him in littlle ways.

I love using AARP Rewards during the holidays because every point I earn helps me stretch my budget further. I redeem points for gift cards and discounts, which means I can surprise my family with thoughtful presents without overspending. I also use the savings on everyday purchases, like groceries and gas, so I have more left over for holiday treats and decorations.

I’m using AARP benefits to purchase gift cards for a cruise. Although the cruise is scheduled in summer, gift cards make a great Christmas gift in my family!

I use the points that I earned for gift cards. I also purchased gift cards at a reduced rate and give those out for Christmas or other holidays.

I always check your offers and use points to give gift cards to others.
