  1. Yeah, I had hoped it'd remain active once we moved beyond sharing Allstate codes and scratch-off/wheel results. Since AARP cards are always in stock, we don't even have the need to post updates on cards being restocked. Dang you, AARP, sell out once in a while! 😝 Don't be strangers, gift card crew, check in once in a while. I'm guilty, too. Haven't been here for a month.
  2. Let's not get carried away. The amount of bandwidth used by iMessage is insignificant in relation to other passengers. Sending a message with 100 characters would use about 10 bytes of data. That's unnoticeable. And to compare it to stealing the neighbor's wifi is a tad dramatic. Since it's a known glitch that iMessage sometimes works without a purchased wifi plan, did the OP just assume iMessages was supposed to work? He/she said others made note of the (perceived) "problem" as well, so it's possible some didn't understand that it actually wasn't a problem at all. Itried4498, how did the OP "change their story" when they literally said they purchased the chat in their original post?
  3. That's not cool. Was it an e-card? That's what mine were, one from the wheel and one from scratch off.
  4. To keep from taking up space inside my suitcase, I set it on top and strap it to the pull handle with a bungee cord.
  5. Allstate Rewards is no more. Did anyone have any luck with the final sweepstakes? Not me. Over 900k points thrown at it and it didn't get me a single prize. Good riddance. LOL Now if AARP would loosen their grip on some of those so-called instant win gift cards.
  6. Last month I maxed out entries on 2 of the big sweeps. A total of 12,000 entries for 600,000 pts. and got nothin'. Someone here won one of the secondary prizes with 1,800 entries I think, so I changed my strategy this time and spread my points out among 5-6 of them. I struck out on a few of the smaller ones they drew for the other day. Good luck to those who entered.
  7. If you accrue points for AARP, use promo code HAUNTED for 100 points. Go to AARP Rewards, choose Redeem from the drop-down menu, and enter the code. This is from their little jack-o-lantern scavenger hunt. There's 5 of them hidden around the Rewards pages that you can find for exclusive (not so great) prizes. So if the code doesn't work for you, I guess they want you to find the jack-o-lantern first.
  8. Well, 6+ years and over 900k points later and I ended up with 11 points left. I wonder if they want to buy them back from me for the low low price of $1 per point.
  9. I got a $25 Uber card a few weeks ago. We don't have Uber (small town life) so the only chance I'd have to use it is on a vacation, and I don't know when that'll be, so I may give it away. The "instant win" gift cards on AARP are proving to be just as elusive.
  10. Cruises 5 days or shorter have one elegant night. According to Cruise Critic's list of shows (found here): https://www.cruisecritic.com/articles/which-shows-are-on-which-carnival-cruise-line-ship and this post: https://boards.cruisecritic.com/topic/2958481-current-playlist-productions-shows/ Conquest only has 80's Pop to the Max.
  11. The Allstate wheel got rid of the second X (not that it helps me) and added a $50 and $100 gift card. They're teasing us.
  12. Congrats on the gift card. And I feel you. I thought cashing in hundreds of thousands of points was supposed to increase our chances of winning. I've blown through over 900k points with nothing to show for it. Still have around 20k left. Instead of maxing out entries on a couple sweeps, I'm spreading them out more and will see how that goes. I won't hold my breath. Yeah, they're only up for 2-3 days. I've seen the touch-free gadget twice and the tote bag once, but haven't seen either one for a week or more.
  13. I've never tried them before. I'm curious as to how it works...how do people swipe them all up in the blink of an eye? Crazy. Nope, didn't notice that. I entered hundreds, sometimes thousands, of tickets in the past month and a half and got squat. Watch me win one I don't want with less than 10 entries. LOL
  14. The difference is, I'd rather have $5 worth of free gas than a Taylor Swift ticket. 😁
