Starbucks eGift Card.
23,000 Points.
$5 Value.
OUCH !!! 23000 points, that’s a lot of points for $5
The increase in points required for Instant Wins ( 50% )
points only cards ( who knows ) probably around the same,
and the increase in the dollar value $$$ of both of these games/plays
- wait for it - absolutely a big fat ZERO ( 0 ) 😭😭
[6/6/26] I don't know about you guys, but I am "struggling" to play ALL the activities I want to do EVERY DAY with the INCREASING amount of points EACH month needed to do so. 😱😭
I ONLY play for what I can use. Trying to save "multiple" cards to use on ONE purchase at a store near me. Amazon is the ONLY "online" I do.
*** Did my LAST Sweepstake (1 entry daily) & Instants TODAY.
*** After redeeming 22,000 points for the Walgreens "points only" TODAY giftcard - I am cleaned out. 😞
GRATEFUL @chefminniemouse posted Walgreens & I saw it BEFORE it "sold out". Now I have THREE saved. Time to go visit Walgreens to see HOW they handle "multiple" cards for ONE purchase. Anyone care to SHARE their experience with Walgreens? Thanks!
If I understand your question, I have never had a problem redeeming more than one gift card at a store or restaurant so you should be fine at Walgreens.
I too have pulled back dramatically in my Rewards activities as I cannot keep up with earning the number of points required to purchase a "reward" and now the Instant Wins have gone up in points required to lose as winning is rare. About 6 months ago, I stopped staying up to the wee hours of the morning on the first of the month hoping to snag a good gift card. Losing sleep isn't worth a $5 GC plus the number of points only gift cards has gone down dramatically.
Hopefully AARP Rewards can get back on track to be something fun and useful to us.
