It's so frustrating that I have been trying to purchase gift cards for 2 days with no luck. I keep being told to just keep trying with no hope in sight. Someone please help!

    @CheriS603303 I'm terribly sorry for the frustration this has caused, Cheri. The AARP Rewards site is still experiencing intermittent issues and our team is working to get it fixed as soon as possible.

    It's the year 2022 and you guys can't get a working cart?

    Why can't I buy gift cards anymore?!?!?!?!  It is 2026 and nothing has changed.

    This is completely UNACCEPTABLE!!!!  The only reason I even have this membership is to purchase the cards and haven't been able to all week.  I think I've literally had some kind of issue EVERY TIME I've tried to buy cards on several occasions.  RIDICULOUS!!!!!  Get a sight that works or don't offer the perks!!!

    It is ridiculous. And I don't think anyone is working on it or it would have been solved and stayed solved. This has been happening off and on for months.

    This is very inconvenient. Please get the cart going soon or come up with another solution. I too have a payment due for a cruise that I was relying on using gift cards. This could cost me hundreds of dollars that I would be saving by being able to purchase the cards.

    Over a week later, and the site is still not working. This is ridiculous! This is definitely more than a temporary system down. This is a huge inconvenience.

    This is very frustrating.  It has been several days now.  How long does it take to fix a standard checkout process?  Every app/website has one. It's not rocket science!
