This has been up for awhile.

I just "checked" to see IF a member had posted it already.

Lol, now I need I am old & wear "glasses" & maybe "missing" it. 😅 Apologies IF I have.

All I am seeing is a post by our @SereneSeagull for one for 14,000 points on ‎04-21-2026 10:40 AM ET.

Anyway, HAPPY Sunday All.

I still have ONE redemption to use before May 31st. Taking "bets" on whether I get to use it. 🙄

Nicole 🤗💛

Lucy @rednexsrus , that sucks for you guys who want them!!! 😤

I NEVER "redeem" for them.

Geez, come on now!!!

Really?

Thanks for the "heads up" so we ALL know this. 👍

I guess the answer is NO. Anyone know?

Lucy @rednexsrus , maybe that is WHY it has NOT "sold out" = what you experienced.

Lol, wonder when it will "sell out"? 😅

I say NEVER. 😉

Jeepers !!! it’s only a lousy $5 gift card, what’s the problem

It’s not going to affect their bottom line.

If some of these merchants were to voice their objections concerning this purchases are limited to one, they possibly may gain some more appreciable customers

@SummerOnTheWay1

No, it’s not just Omaha, there are quite a few Merchants that are tagged this way, IDK if this is their decision to limit the number of purchases or if it’s AARP, I suspect the latter.

On another note why do you suppose this administrator likes to leave up the points only gift card tiles that are SOLD OUT ( 11 ) this morning by my count. ?? 🤔 😤 ??

GOOD morning Lucy @rednexsrus !!!

I feel there is a GLITCH that appeared on Monday or late Sunday as the LIST was NOT like that.

When you say administrator, I am assuming Merkle?

Yes, ALL THE SOLD OUTS "reappeared" after this Saturday./lol 😅

Well, I tend to think it is the VENDOR & not AARP who is doing the "restriction". But maybe BOTH. 😉

Why?

I am sure BOTH make money off the cards in some way. We will NEVER know how. 🙄

I still have ONE "redemption" left for THIS MONTH to use & beginning to wonder IF I will use it.

Have you used ALL 3 of yours?

With gas prices off the charts & having to have to "replace" my Old Lady (2006 Hyundai Elantra) - I "is" watching my pennies even closer than usual. So with this said, being VERY SELECTIVE in what cards I redeem for THIS MONTH. So NOT traveling anywhere for a $5 card. Now "several" I am game. 🙃

Working on that "several" and HOPING to get a usable card between now and May 31st. 🤞

HAPPY Tuesday ALL,

Nicole 🤗💛

Lucy @rednexsrus , Merkle has NOW removed all the SOLD OUTS. 👍 Lol, I figured it was a "glitch". 😉
