If you have been saving up those Shoppers Drug Mart Optimum points for a bonus redemption, get ready to spend them! This weekend, Shoppers Drug Mart will have a Spend Your Points & Get Points Back promotion. Surprisingly with Valentine’s Day so soon, it is not a beauty redemption and you can redeem for almost anything in the store.
- Spend 50,000 Optimum points and get $85 worth of free stuff plus $15 in points back
- Spend 95,000 Optimum points and get $170 worth of free stuff plus $30 in points back
While these redemptions are not great for those high ticket items like electronics, they usually value the points at the closest value. So $30 in points is likely 22,000 – worth around $45 at regular bonus redemptions and close to $40 if redeemed at the highest level on a regular day.
What is on your bonus redemption shopping list?
Can I use the points to buy gift cards and still get dollar points back?
No 🙁 Unfortunately gift cards are excluded…
How many times can we redeem?
Are they points point back immediately at the cash or do we have to wait and if so how long do we wait before the points are point back on our card.
I redeemed in the fall and the points are put back on your card a few weeks after the event.
Is this only applicable to SDM stores or can this be applied to Murale chains as well?
Darn, is this the spring mega redemption that only happens 2x a year? I thought it was supposed to be in Autumn and Spring this already passed and Spring is now 🙁
Guys, this happened to me. I bought some stuff worth for $60 and used points to pay the bill. i had to return my stuff cause it was not the right one. Since i used points, i couldn’t get my points back and i got $60 cash. Since their system wouldn’t allow to add points back. So this gave me an idea if you want to save for the big event $170 then buy stuff and return it and you will get money then you may buy anything including gift cards..
So disappointed it’s not a redemption weekend like last year! Have been saving for forever and wanted to wait for this one since its also my birthday 😖
Please advise when the next Shoppers Drug Mart (Optimum Program) spend your points event will take place.
