Playing the daily crossword helps reduce the holiday stresses.

What do you use your rewards for during the holidays?

I use my points to get gift cards for gifts, and restaurant gift cards for girls day out!

The Rewards Program gives me the ability to entertain and acquire points for gift cards and dining options. I usually check in everyday and enjoy the trivia games and the poker. Accumulating points for watching the videos and especially all the quiz options are definitely worth the time because they are fun to do. And don't forget the sweepstakes, winning is great!

I've been a member for years, allowing me to get hotel and restaurant deals, particularly when I visit family in other states. In addition, I regularly show my card in Thrift stores, and get even bigger deals.😀

THE AARP REWARDS CONTEST by Stuart Paltrowitz

 

My gift Rewards never end

They are always there for family and friends.

When there are presents to buy and I'm in a pinch

My AARP Rewards are there and I hardly move an inch.

The Rewards I earn give me such a lift.

I just insert the card to buy my wife a gift.

Whether it's for a theatre ticket or a restaurant plate,

I use my Rewards and we both feel great.

So use your Rewards and stretch your budget.

You can show true love and you don't have to fudge it.

I use the rewards to save on travel. I like to earn points to enter the sweepstakes. I earn points with my Fitbit steps, watching videos and taking quizzes.  I pass along what I learn.

I was very excited recently when I won a $10. Kohls gift card from AARP. The icing on the cake was when I got an email from Kohl's for 40% off. It's like getting something for almost nothing. I also love the special deals that pop up from time to time such as a Dunkin $3 gift card for zero points or other cards just for points. The bottom line is that I'm learning and earning! Win-Win.

I use AARP rewards to save by redeeming points for gift cards. Those same gift cards also make good stocking stuffers in a pinch. I earn points by watching videos, completing quizzes, and playing games daily. Not only do I learn something new, but it also helps with my brain health. AARP rewards helps me live a healthier life.

I use the AARP rewards program to participate in learning activities to gain rewards points. I save on local deals and also on gift cards for myself or friends. I am coming back later this week to use my points for a discounted Safeway gift card. Anything I can save on groceries is a big help!

I've used reward points to purchase grocery store gift cards ~ they definitely help stretch my holiday food budget.  
 
Buying a $25 grocery gift card for $20 means a lot when I'm buying ingredients for baking my family's favorite cookies, etc.  We all know groceries are expensive, so that extra $5 helps offset the higher prices I see every time I shop.  I'm very grateful for what I call my AARP gift card bonus!

You have given me a great idea: From now on, I will redeem my AARP points for grocery gift cards to give a friend who needs them more than me.💝
