careful though, you dont wanna be dubbed as a 'karen'.newfbc wrote: ↑ Yes.. that's correct... you cannot buy one of their own gift cards with their own gift card. I think this is mostly to prevent abuse of promotions - you could buy a $150 gift card to get 100 Air Miles, then use it to buy another $150 gift card for more miles, and so on... Some cashiers/managers may try to make up their own rules.. in that case, show them the 'official terms' at the site listed.

if they dont allow it, best to move to the next location.

Monday I bought a $100 Shell gift card along with other items using my Safeway gift card. The lady processed through with no question asked. Wed. I went to a different location near Granville & W 70th Ave. The cashier refused to accept my Safeway gift card. Later the manager came and gave me some kind of BS like money laundering using gift card to buy gift card. I even showed him my receipt from Monday. He said the staff made a mistake. I went back to the same store as Monday. Now a different cashier told me I could not use the same gift card to buy another Shell gift card.ml88888888 wrote: ↑ Some cashiers/managers may try to make up their own rules.

Their system will process through. It's only depending on which cashier is scanning the items.

especially during the bonus AM sale this week. Any smart cashier or manager would know what you are trying to do by buying Sobeys gcs, then turn around and buy 3rd party gcs using Sobeys gcs. May be buy the 3rd party gcs next week.
