Amex BCE question

[rmduhon]

I know that Walmart isn't considered a grocery store (unless I'm getting cards mixed up). But is their pharmacy considered a drugstore? Probably not but thought I'd ask.

No.

drugstore would be like CVS or Walgreens.

Might look into switching hubby's scripts over, if they are comparable or cheaper.

BCE doesn't provide any extra benefits on drugstores anyway  (Just the OBC)

I've always found drug stores to be a bogus category.  I mean, outside of someone that spend a ton on scripts, how much can one really spend at a drug store?

Drug stores such as CVS as extremely popular with manufactured spending.  In the good old days of Vanilla Reloads and Bluebird, lots of people were spending $5K per day there.  .  Which presumably isn't the goal of the credit card companies when they made drug stores 5%,  but still.....

Booze, cigarettes and toilet paper can really add up!

@longtimelurker Thanks for the correction. A poster on a another post said drugstore instead of department store. Now I'm stuck on drugstore. Lol
