FLArmyWife Posted March 31, 2017 #2076 Share Posted March 31, 2017 It's not scientific but I've noticed that it's usually early in the day, and quite often on Fridays! I'm looking for some more so I'll be checking first thing tomorrow hoping to snatch a few! Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SNJCruisers Posted April 2, 2017 #2077 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Can the cards be redeemed to replace a deposit on an existing booking and thus the credit card used would be debited? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tidecat Posted April 2, 2017 #2078 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Can the cards be redeemed to replace a deposit on an existing booking and thus the credit card used would be debited? Yes, I have done this. When you call Carnival, you will need to make the Gift Card payment first. Sent from my eye phone using Forums FFS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have placed two 500.00 deposits down on two different Horizon cruises for 2018 and 2019. I was wondering if I could contact my TA (not Carnival PVP) and have him swap out my 1000.00 in deposits that went on my credit card with 1000.00 in gift cards?

I don't see why a TA wouldn't be able to do the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you my dear....now once I verify it and have him do it, I need to snag another 1000 in cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're very welcome, sweetie :D. Might be worth getting a Citi card like the Diamond Preferred so you can get Citi Easy Deals. They seem to have them more often. Oh, and no charge for shipping!

Teachmath1 Posted April 14, 2017 #2083 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Is there a limit on the number of cards you can buy? I have enough points to buy $2000 worth when they are available but my payment date is getting close and I might buy elsewhere if I can't buy that many at once.

westview1900 Posted April 14, 2017 #2085 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Is that 5 X $100 cards or 5 X $500 cards or does it matter? Thanks, Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the $500 cards are available, you can buy 4 of those at one time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tatt2ed Posted April 14, 2017 #2088 Share Posted April 14, 2017 If the $500 cards are available, you can buy 4 of those at one time. Then you put in multiple orders. I buy every card separately so i get more slips for bonus points. Same shipping either way Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruizinisthebest Posted April 14, 2017 #2089 Share Posted April 14, 2017 If the $500 cards are available, you can buy 4 of those at one time. You can buy 5 of any combination every 24 hours per account as previously stated. And it goes to the minute with the 24 hours.

Organized Chaos Posted April 14, 2017 #2090 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Can guest services split a card between multiple S&S accounts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DebbieMo Posted April 14, 2017 #2091 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Can guest services split a card between multiple S&S accounts? Yes, works like a regular gift card. If you don't use it all you are left with a balance and you can apply that to another account. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tatt2ed Posted April 14, 2017 #2092 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Since we have pretty much killed the intended purpose of this thread. Ill ask this, how many of you have their cruise fully paid off and are still buying cards in the event you wanna put a deposit on another cruise ? Or am i the only sick one who has their cruise, flight, gratuities paid in full with cards and a stock pile for the next booking Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbismith Posted April 14, 2017 #2093 Share Posted April 14, 2017 I have two if them with my passports for an extra spending on board. I have prepaid gratuity.

I guess that makes 2 of us sickos. I have 3 cruises booked. All I use is gift cards. I actually use a spreadsheet to keep track of them and use them for every single Carnival spend. Just yesterday I finally threw out the stack I used on our cruise last year. Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I plan on making our own scavenger hunt for the teens in our group and would like to give the winning team a prize. I'm thinking about getting a $100 gift card for the winners, splitting it between two people. Since we have pretty much killed the intended purpose of this thread.

I'm not sure how you can restrict this thread to only posting when the AARP gift cards become available. I suppose a mod could lock it down and be responsible for posting when they're available, but that's not their job. Personally, I think using this thread to ask questions and discuss the gift cards is a good way to fill the gaps between the times they're available. It seems to be the biggest thread pertaining to AARP gift cards, so it's always going to attract the most attention. I know you've gotten upset a few times because people asked questions that have already been answered instead of reading through 100+ pages, but if you don't want to answer them, you don't have to.

I buy them every time they put them up for sale. I haven't missed buying at least 1 $100 gift card in just under 2 years. My subscription notice has gone crazy today...

Organized Chaos Posted April 15, 2017 #2097 Share Posted April 15, 2017 My subscription notice has gone crazy today... But no new listing...Just the same questions that have been answered usually within 20-30 posts...Below are the only two questions asked today. I've been following this thread for over two weeks now, so I know my question wasn't asked/answered since then. But just for good measure, I went back three pages, or 60 posts, and neither of them were asked within your "20-30 posts" timeframe, not even close. The question prior to these two was asked almost two weeks ago. Again, I didn't see that question asked/answered in the last three pages either. And so what if someone asks a question that's already been answered somewhere in this 100+ page thread. It's a heck of a lot easier to ask than to sift through over 2,000 posts. Quicker too. If you don't want to answer, then don't. Thankfully there are plenty of others who are happy to oblige. Is there a limit on the number of cards you can buy? I have enough points to buy $2000 worth when they are available but my payment date is getting close and I might buy elsewhere if I can't buy that many at once.

BuckeyeTraveler Posted April 15, 2017 #2098 Share Posted April 15, 2017 (edited) Or if you are already subscribed to this thread you should of already be prepared to know where and how to purchase them SINCE they sell out so quickly.
