To clarify the age requirements and day of the month, I sent an email to OPTIMUM PHARMAPRIX
In the province of Québec, Shopper's Drug Mart goes by the name of "Pharmaprix" ... not to be confused with UNIprix, a competing chain.

Hello,
Thank you for writing to us. Shoppers Drug Mart hosts a Seniors Discount Day on the last Thursday of each month. To be eligible for the discount, a customer must be at least 65 years of age and present their personal Shoppers Optimum card. Please see your local Shoppers Drug Mart store for any variances in this required age, as our stores are individually owned and operated.
Please do not hesitate to contact the Customer Service Call Centre at 1-800-SHOPPERs should you have any further questions or comments.
Regards,
Trevor
Shoppers Drug Mart Customer Service

If you search there is other threads on here with different answers.
Guess it all depends on which answer you want to go with.
Realistically they aren't going to ask to see ID.

I need to send an email to them so they can confirm that it also includes friends and family members of the senior. It said it in the flyer but the cashier was not going to let me grandfather purchase diapers with his discount cause me a my DD were with him. The funny part was he told me that he wanted to buy the diapers in exchange for me taking him out to run all his errands...He was actually buying them himself for a gift!!!

I don't know what it is about cashiers making up their own rules when they feel like it. One time, I was shopping at SDM with my dad and had no idea that it was seniors' day. When I went to pay for my purchases, the cashier told me that I would get the discount since my dad was with me. She didn't even ask for his ID (he looks old enough ).
You should definitely contact SDM, and if friends and family do qualify, you should also give them the name of the cashier that you dealt with. I don't mind when cashiers follow legitimate rules, but it drives me nuts when they make things up according to their mood of the day.
