shoppersdrugmart.ca then click on eflyer. I know of no other way to get the flyer for your area. I enter my postal code with no spaces if that helps.

Question about that GC promo last year. Were you able to buy the SDM GC, get the points. Then use that GC to buy other GC's they sell? Also were the points added to your account immediately when you first bought the special amount SDM card?

Yes, I bought SDM GCs and then used those through out the year to get Esso GCs.

I think the points were awarded later.

This is my fave SDM promotion, and really the only time I shop there anymore, but the chocolate promo was a cool second.

I'll have to check into what other GC's they sell as we usually only get our gas at the CT gas bar.

They were definitely added at a later date. I remember my heart skipping a beat when I looked at the receipt.

Was there a limit as to how many promos you could do/how much you could spend on it?

No limit per say. But you had to do it in seperate transactions of 2 GC totally $150. It can totally change this time around though.

There was no limit. We did a lot.

What is the age for seniors at SDM?

The official rules are 65 but many stores have differing ages, you will have to call your local stores and find out. One of the stores here is 55 the one 5 mins away from it is 65 and my reg store 60

Okay thanks. Will cross my fingers my local stores are 55

[PurpleBunny89]

So first store was 60. Second store was 65. Last store ... 55!!! Whoo Hoo!

[PurpleBunny89]

Okay, posting again. One last question. How does the seniors discount factor in to promotions like 20x points or spend X get X points?

[FallenPixels]

They don't get points on the discount so I think it needs to be OOP

I see what you mean. But then technically with the discount I would be "buying" more. Like if my total OOP was $45 after coupons I'd obviously still qualify for the promo but then take off 20% and I would suddnely NOT qualify anymore so whatever that 20% is I would need to make up for in essentially free items. Does this make sense? I'm not crazy
