Yes technically their system allows that, at the cashiers. But they seem to be disallowing cashiers to do that now. So not a technical issue, but more of a policy/execution issue.
It was a store in Kitchener, previously did it in a Waterloo store months before. Some cashiers will say no, some will do it. YMMV.

If you buy the Sobeys gift card that is good at Sobeys, Food Basics and Foodland, you have spending power at more than one store. You can give those as gifts.

I think you meant Freshco, and not Food Basics, but I get your point.

Taken from Sobeys website...

Gift cards can be redeemed at all Sobeys, IGA, Garden Market IGA, Foodland, Safeway, FreshCo, Thrifty Foods, Lawtons Drugs, Needs, Fast Fuel and Price Chopper (ON) locations across Canada*.
*Sobeys gift cards are not accepted at Marketplace IGA locations in B.C.

On $150 GC, for cash airmiles, it's about $21 cashback and 14% return. Use your 2%-4% MasterCard/AMEX and well you know. :)

This may be a stupid question but can you get this more than once? I need 1000 air miles, can I buy 5 x $150 gift cards to achieve this? Thanks!

Sorry for the dumb question:
Is it 3X$50 GC each time, or $150 each per transaction, or it doesn't matter, you can simply put $750 GC in total and you will get 1K air miles?

+1. Last time when the east had the Sobeys GC deal, I was hoping west would have one soon. I have been looking forward to one in west but nothing in the last say 2 years. :(

Are Sobey's gift card bought at Sobeys active right away? I would rather go in, buy the gift cards and then shop with the card in the same trip.

Can anyone also confirm if this deal is valid at Sobeys extra locations.

When I bought a 100 GC last time it was active right away. Get it first then go shopping and use sobeys app for extra miles points.

Sobeys Thornhill even called my CC issuer to see if I can purchase the GC with the credit card. No one answered so the cashier let me insert my chipped CC to buy it.

From Mondays to Thursdays, our local Sobey's give us $10 gift cards for $20 produce purchases.

Is there a single $150 gc?
