Did you know there are over 1300 Shoppers Drug Mart locations in Canada? That’s a lot of drug stores! I love their PC Optimum program, and so I often write about the ways each week to get more points. More points, of course, mean a lot more free stuff. 10,000 points = $10 of free stuff. And the freebies really matter more than ever – shopping smart at Shoppers is the only way to shop! I’ve found their regular prices have skyrocketed, so definitely be sure to shop the sales and utilize your points.

PC Optimum points on GIFT CARDS – H&M and kobo
Every week Shoppers seems to offer a different gift card deal – meaning you’ll get PC Optimum points when you buy these gift cards. (Awesome!!!) This week: Get 10,000 PC Optimum points for every $50 or more you buy of H&M or kobo gift cards. Deal runs until Friday, May 26, 2023.

PC Optimum points on Food & Groceries

This is for the VERY fancy 9350 type of toothbrush, which has a phone app that is pretty incredibly detailed about the health of your teeth!)
- Waterpik Waterflosser – Get 4000 points (I did find a few types of this on Amazon, and actually this one looks like the best deal right now. It’s a cordless variety, which I think would be handy.)
Summertime Specials – bonus points
There are a few selected summer offers already up! I took a screenshot so you can see all the goodies on offer and the points offers on each one:


And a couple more on bronzing/tanning products…


PC Optimum Points Round Up This week: My choices for the best deals
Let’s see – I’m loving the:
- Cadbury offer on family bars and more (also gum, etc) – 1000 points when you buy 2 family size bars for 2/$5.00. I guess I just like getting points on chocolate. Haha
- FREE Movies tickets on Sunday this week – nice score at a value of $27 for the pair of Cineplex movie tickets. When you spend $75, but if you need to get some items anyway it’s a great time to get a free movie in on the deal.
- The Gift cards deal on kobo or H&M looks tempting too – Basically $10 back on each $50 gift card you buy. Nice!
