20 X the points on girft cards?

[thecouponclipper]

Anyone know if this work? I usually buy a $50 gift card before buying my stuff and last 20 x the points day I purchased a $75 gift card AND i got 20 x the points. I used them up right away assuming that shoppers head office would take them back. But does anyone have an exact confirmation if you do get it? I'm a little hesitant to do it this time because I don't actually need anything I just need the points
hm..... what should i do?

I also have a quesion about gift cards.

Do you get regular optiumum point when you purchase other gift cards, eg. bestbuy, roots, gap, etc, at SDM?

No. Only SDM GCs are eligible.

thanks for replying.
that sucks, I was hoping to get some extra points by buying GC for stores I know I'm going to shop at anyways.

Buy the shoppers gift card, then turn around and buy the gift card you want with your shoppers gift card, youll earn points and get the card you want.

Not sure if everyone knows but only the $50 and above Shoppers gift cards are eligible for points.

Are you sure?

Actually all SDM gift cards are eligible - $10, $25 - you get points for them.

Not necessarily... I've been to a SDM (in Barrie-on Mapleview) and they wouldn't let me use a SDM GC to purchase other gift cards. They also wouldn't let me purchase a SDM gift card with my credit card.

I'm thinking that in the past they've had problems with fraud or CC/GC theft and this is there way of managing it.

Those whose shop at a store are in luck if they can do as you suggested, but not every store in my experience allows this sort of thing. Bummer that a few "bad apples" ruined it for others

Don't mean to doubt you...but can you post a picture of your receipt that shows you got 20X pts on a $75 GC?
