I have some shoppers drug mart gc. Anyone know if I can use them to buy third party gc? Preferably Disney ones?

That will not allow purchasing gift cards with another gift card.

That was my understanding too but I wasn't 100% confident.

You can use Shoppers Drug Mart Gift cards to purchase third party gift cards in store only not online. I have done so, last time was in August of 2025. The above FAQ question on their website backs this up still so I don't believe they have changed the policy.

You cannot use Optimum points to purchase a Gift card though.

Except, you can, you just need to be creative.

You need to purchase an amount of items from the store that are equal to or greater than the amount of the gift card you wish to purchase.

e.g. Select $50 of items from the shelves. Add a gift card for $50 to your purchase. Pay $50 + use 50,000 Optimum points.

In my head I'm paying for the groceries and using Optimum points for the gift card.

They let me use the shoppers gc to buy a Disney gc. Didn’t even buy extra stuff.
