cruizinisthebest Posted October 26, 2015 #676 Share Posted October 26, 2015 I'll check daily. All I see are RCI for $100 They are gone now. They are only available here and there. This last batch was available 3 days. Just keep checking. They will be back. Sent from my SCH-I435 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cateyes2u Posted October 26, 2015 #677 Share Posted October 26, 2015 I will be checking daily. I just need 3 $100 to pay of my March cruise. I love cruise critic. I've been missing out on this great tip for years. Does anyone know if they offer cards for NCL? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeRB Posted October 27, 2015 #678 Share Posted October 27, 2015 I'll check daily. All I see are RCI for $100 Since you are subscribed to this thread, you should get emails from Cruise Critic when postings are made here. When the Carnival cards do become available; there will be a number of posting in a very short time. If you have Verizon, when the cards are available through AARP; they seem to be also be available through Verizon Smart Rewards as well. Good luck in snagging some. Lastly, ALWAYS read the Terms and Conditions closely before buying, I don’t use the AARP website; but on the Verizon website those RCL certificates have too many “can’t use for’s” and other strings associated with them for me.

mjkd Posted October 27, 2015 #679 Share Posted October 27, 2015 Another way to build up points is to spend points. Although I, have never bought less than $500 worth of cards, every purchase has been rewarded with a 1000 point bonus card. I am sure someone will correct me if I am wrong,but if you spend 1000 point to buy a $100 gift card you will likely be "rewarded with a 1000 point bonus certificate" for each purchase. Good luck and welcome to the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cateyes2u Posted October 27, 2015 #681 Share Posted October 27, 2015 Another AARP newbie question. 1. Can you use points to purchase gift cards cards? 2. Is there a link or FAQ's that gives a breakdown of points converted to dollars saved? I took a few quiz's and built up 6500 points today. I clicked the video, but left the room, and did not listen in it's entirety. Thanks for your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for your help AARP uses points AND money for the gift cards, it is 10% savings, a $100 card will cost you $90 and 1000 points, etc..... You can not buy gift cards with points only, BUT if you are on the site, from time to time they have various $10 cards for 500 points, no money, I have received a few, not bad, but it is a combination of points and money.....

Considering the points cost you nothing to earn, it's a good deal. Especially if you use them for everything like I do.

That is the pattern I have noticed as of late, show up as sold out, then available with no inventory they BAM they are available......This whole system is odd...........

You can do either way, use the $500 to pay off balance and your card with have a $200 balance, take it to Guest services when you get on the ship and apply it to your sign and sail. And I do believe you can also pay balance off and ask that the remaining balance be put toward OBC. It's the same both ways, I just prefer doing it once I get on the ship, in case something happens that I have to rebook, less chance of mess up.
