I like instant wins I have won $130.00 different stores

Points should get us more than $5.  Ever hear of inflation?  Most offers are for things we don't need or want.

I I would like cards or discounts to places I frequent. ShopRite, Wegmans, Costco, CVS, TJ Maxx. And restaurants other than pizza places. For my location they are 90% pizza places.

Thank you.

My wish list is for Amazon, Walmart, Kroger and Albertson's gift cards with higher dollar values to redeem for points.  For example, keep the $5 gift cards for 28,000 points but also add a $10 card for 50,000 points, or a $20 card for 100,000 points.  Those would appeal to a broad range of people ~ if you didn't have a lot of available points, or if you had many points you wanted to spend on something tangible (unlike sweepstakes, where points seem to disappear into a big dark hole, they're gone and you're left with nothing!  lol).

I never win so I've cut down on entries. Lost interest.

I've played the different games for many years and never won a **bleep** thing. I don't even look at the offers anymore.

Watch videos and take simple quizzes you get thousands of points very quickly to redeem for gift cards.  Yes instant wins and sweeps hard to get, but free gift cards for watching videos and taking simple quizzes …if you were handed $5 wouldn’t you take it?

Gift cards for Kohl's, Walmart, Bath and Body Works, and Ulta because it's about time I treated myself ☻

The AARP rewards are great! I save up reward points to enter sweepstakes for cash and gift cards all year. I save up points and redeem them for $5.00 gift cards to treat myself and others. I treated a few family members to a large bottle of epsom salt lavender bubble bath from TJ Maxx. I treated my grand daughter to fries at Five Guys when she ran errands with me. I treated myself to a deluxe bag of dark chocolate covered almonds from CVS and mixed nuts from Walgreens. Then I got $5.00 off a nice moisturizer at Ulta Beauty. I scanned $5.00 off a coat at LL Bean that my daughter was buying. I printed documents at Staples. Oh, did I mention that I made key copies at Lowe’s? I even did this all in one fun filled day. I chuckled that the gas to run the errands in my local community probably costed more than my purchases! I had no problem paying for the gas thanks to saving and stacking my rewards.

I would love to win gift cards to Walmart for food and things I need for my dogs.  I would like to see more higher card values than just $5.00, you can't buy anything for $5.00 anymore.

I hear what your saying @lacorkie.  But just recently I used three $5 gift cards to a restaurant, stacking them.  They add up.  Offering multiple ones at a time would be helpful like for Walmart and Amazon or other places for groceries these days for sure.
