 I have been purchasing the discounted royal caribbean gift cards which is going to save me hundreds on a special cruise we are taking for our 25th wedding anniversary! I also like redeeming points for gift cards when that is available.

I like doing the quizzes and earning points. I am always pleased when I get the answers correct and on some I really learn cuz I get the wrong answers. I then like to use the points for the sweepstakes and instant wins, figure one day I will win one. I used to like to redeem them for magazines when you had that program. It keeps me involved and up to date on stuff or just fun to play some of the games. I really am happy to be a member of AARP

I get a lot from taking the quizzes… life-long curiosity = life-long learning.  Lots of interesting information for keeping informed about changes in health related topics is a favorite.  I use points to enter contests (not that we’ve ever won). 😉

I enjoy doing the surveys and watching the videos and I do learn a lot from them. I like earning points and entering the sweepstates etc. I haven't won anything yet but still fun trying

I like learning by earning points through videos and quizzes. I usually spend my points on sweepstakes, although I haven't won yet, my fingers are crossed!

  I love to earn rewards with the gift cards. Thanks AARP !!!!

I use my points throughout the year to accumulate gift cards and take loved ones shopping for items they wouldn’t otherwise buy for themselves.

I use the rewards to save on travel related rewards. I also like to enter the sweepstakes so I earn the reward points to enter the various sweepstakes. Earning the rewards by watching videos or taking quizzes is very informative too.

I use the AARP Rewards program all year long! That way when I see a gift I want to buy for Christmas I can buy it any time of year! Since I save money year round, I can spend year round! What's not to love about that?

 I used the AARP Rewards program to earn points so I can redeem them monthly to get gift cards.  This allows me to try new a new food place in my area that I have not tried before.  Some of those places have now become new favorites.  If it were not for the Rewards program I might not have tried them.  Some other points I use to buy gift cards for local stores to get items that I need and that helps my monthly budget.

       I enjoy reading all the articles that come in our email box.  I have learned so much from health, finance and even redeeming my points for rewards.  I have also taken advantage of some of the webinars/Zoom meetings.  The one that really sticks out to me was about a year ago regarding Social Security.  I know there are so many more benefits I need to take advantage of and have not done so yet.  I also enjoy the print magazines that come in the mail.  I have cut out, printed and shared so many articles with friends and family.  I have truly enjoyed being an AARP Member and highly recommend my friends and family to join along with me.

   I love the AARP rewards program!  I went on a cruise in October, and saved $$'s by purchasing the Cruise line gift card and then redeeming it towards payment of my cruise!  I do plan to use more and love the quizzes that give me the points to apply towards the sweepstakes!! Haven't won yet..but I am confident that I will soon!! 

[SereneSeagull]

That’s great to hear.  Have you tried earning with the recipes and exercise videos.  Accumulating points easy with those as well.  

[jwlusk]

I sure have!
