Which is correct...Sweepstakes Official Rules? Or Online Catalog Listing?

andrewtoo — Tue, 02 Jun 2026 04:37:59 GMT

The $100 Southwest Airlines egift card Sweepstakes listing in the Online Catalog is incorrect or correct?

Because the Official Rules state that the egift cards are $250.

"AARP Rewards $250 Southwest Airlines eGift Card
Sweepstakes Official Rules
NO PURCHASE NECESSARY. A PURCHASE OR PAYMENT OF ANY KIND WILL NOT INCREASE
YOUR CHANCES OF WINNING." https://www.aarp.org/content/dam/aarp/rewards/redeem/rules/sweeps/40538-southwest-airlines-sweeps.pdf

Also, the Online Catalog does not list the number of egift cards that can be won anymore, beginning last month. Before last month, each listing would state something like "Enter for a chance to win 1 of xx gift cards" when we opened a sweepstakes offering to enter the number of entries that we wanted to purchase with points.

I knew that something was amiss when I had to go to each of the Official Rules to determine how many gift cards that were available to win for each and every Sweepstakes.

Something that struck me as odd this month was the low number of Burger King cards that were available to win this month at only 10 cards. I AM NOT PLEASED TO READ THIS, ONLY 10 CARDS FOR BURGER KING'S SWEEP?!? The other $100 cards have 15 cards available to win. https://www.aarp.org/content/dam/aarp/rewards/redeem/rules/sweeps/40514-3-burger-king-sweeps.pdf

Transparency and accuracy is very much appreciated. It would be nice if the number of cards that can be won were again listed when we open an offering "box."

Yes, they copyright that kind of genius.🙄

None of us should have to research each and every Official Rules just to know how many cards are available in the Sweepstakes. Please provide the number of gift cards in the catalog for each Sweep.

Creative culling took place. Great question here though.

Hey AARP.

First, I'm a big fan of the rewards program, let's not forget that.

Next, Does the Burger King Sweepstakes only have 10 "grand prizes" of $100 egift cards? The official rules have not changed on Burger King so far today, while the value of the SW Airlines Sweep has been reduced by $1,000 in prizes.

Why not change to "Enter for a chance to Win One of 10 "

Finally, To my question above; Can we get the number of gift card prizes shown when we pull up each of the Sweepstakes tiles in the online catalog, like we have had for years before?

Thanks

[6/2/26] @SereneSeagull , I had to look up the word "culling" you used in your post. Had an idea, but wanted to make sure. 😉

➡️[** PER GOOGLE - culling/ˈkəliNG/Culling is the selective removal or reduction of individuals from a larger group based on specific criteria.

*** Yes, I figured that would happen. Still NO response./lol 😅

Never heard of the term being used for individuals, but I guess it could be! Usually is a term.used for paring down or selecting items out of a group or collection. Culling is to remove or pare down.
