I just "tried" using the filter I had been using since joining the Rewards Program in May 2025.

 

As we all know, "filters" had a GLITCH this year 2026.

 

*** Well, fingers crossed it is indeed fixed - it just WORKED for me. 💃

 

I do ONLY retail points only giftcards.

 

And the interesting thing when I COMPARED both lists (one used points only filter with retail filter,one used just retail filter) = the one WITHOUT the points only filter was SHORT by one giftcard. It DIDNOT list the Shari giftcard.

 

Lol, now to HOPE it works the NEXT time I search. 😅

 

HAPPY SUNDAY ALL!!!

 

Nicole 💛

      Good to hear, Nicole!  Thanks for letting us know!

       

      For those of us who still might distrust the given search filter like I do, here’s the search string to filter rewards, that I”ll continue to use…

      -greeting -subscription -coloring -instant -sweepstakes -guide

       

      Enter it here.

       

       

      Minus sign in front of each word, one space between words.  This filters out those words.  It’s called Boolean Search, and it’s an old, but a tried-and-true way to filter out given words from a search, even Google.


      Results will then be cleaner:
