WE can sometimes "predict" WHEN certain cards will be posted EACH MONTH = so we WAIT. 👍

Then we have cards that are posted ONLY "once" for EACH MONTH.

Add the VERY POPULAR & sometimes hard to get Walmart & Amazon cards.

Lol, of course like with life - nothing is guaranteed!!! 😂

(1) What are YOUR PLANS for the cards you want? Maybe a vacation? Or a night out? Or just regular grocery shopping?

(2) Stop by when you can to SHARE with us & READ what OTHER members have posted.

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE,

Nicole 🤗💛

Not TOO MUCH longer for August 1st & so far the Merkle AI has 55 listed (filtered = retail & dining ONLY). I NEVER use any of the OTHER options. I am sure there should be some posted for them too. 👍

Lol, of course a few NEVER GET "redeemed" for. 😂

But the POPULAR ones for example Amazon & Walmart will be gone "within" MINUTES of the AARP "clock" saying it is indeed August 1st.

GOOD LUCK everyone!!!

Me, Jersey Mike's & Panera & Walgreens for AUGUST 2026.

SAVING them for my Birthday Month in September to "try" these 3 locations for the 1st time using the AARP eGiftcards.

I noticed yesterday they opened a Jersey Mike's 5 minutes from me, closer than the one that opened 15 min away from me last year. I have $10 to spend there. Will use it at some point, but I'm glad it's so close by.

I ran out of Kohl's gift cards and also Best Buy (I just bought a small laptop), so I'm hoping for those and of course WALMART (the battle ground). Not many Best Buy this past month, maybe more in August??

Maria @MariaK113398 , the thing with the Walmart cards is that with the TRAFFIC on the Rewards Site = it freezes for some of us. 😞

➡️[*** There are 3 Walmart cards sitting on the AAR Rewards Site "right now" = maybe WAIT until the END OF AUGUST. If the Merkle AI "repeats", there "maybe" some. 🤞

Lol, it is like everyone who wants them have their FINGER ready to "click" as soon as it is August 1st. Poor site just CANNOT handle this.

Well hopefully they will UPGRADE it after they UPGRADE the Community Board on August 5th. 🙄

I am trying to remember, did we get a "Best Buy" this month? Oh well, I believe you. My old brain been on "strike" of late. 😉

Take care my friend,

Nicole 🤗💛

I don't think any Best Buy gift cards were offered in July. Hopefully I can get a Walmart card!

No I decided to hold out for Best Buy or another Walmart if I can get one. I have one redemption left.

Hoping the "multiple" Walgreens & Staples will still be there September 1st. Have enough Bath & Body Works at the moment (luv their candles & smell good lotions). Have yet to use "cards" at Walgreens. Want to do so at the store in my area. DONOT "trust" online in my OLD age. Have several nearby here in Virginia. Been YEARS since I have been to a Walgreens. Lol, need to do this BEFORE old man winter arrives or wait until Spring. I live on a hill & learn't the hard way to "stay home" when the weatherman tells you to. 😂 Our winters are getting worst. Back in 2018, they were "mild". LAST one had us "trapped" for a week due to "thick" ice that took forever to be removed. And NO mail either. Stocking up on CAN GOODS now.

GOOD LUCK everyone with winning something. 🤞

EVERYONE, have a "great" weekend!!!

Nicole 🙃
