Monthly bus pass

hello
just wondering if there is a SDM in Vancouver that sells monthly passes?
tnx

they all do

really???
my sdm does not

Ive bought them at shoppers, London drugs, safeway, 7 11, IGA.
I know for sure that the one at new west skytrain does. :-)

The one downtown (Granville and ...Georgia I think) does but I`m pretty sure you don`t get SDM points when you buy bus passes bc they don`t qualify for bonus points

Here's what I do. I use my Shoppers Optimum MasterCard to buy a SDM gift card. I get regular points for the purchase of the SDM gift card (which show up immediately on my receipt) and then bonus points for using the Shoppers Optimum MC to pay for it. Those bonus points show up later on the closing date of my monthly MC statement.

I go to the SDM on Homer Street (downtown) to buy my bus pass. There may be some staff at some stores that will not let you pay for a bus pass with a SDM gift card but I've had no problem for years now. These bus passes are transferable so my partner and I are constantly handing it back and forth. It gets used a lot everyday.

I save the old bus passes and turn them in to my accountant each spring to get a tax deduction. :smartass:
