Walgreens Gift Card Return Policy [All You Need To Know]
Walgreens sells a variety of gift cards at its more than 8,000 stores nationwide. While these are great gifts, there are times when you need to return a gift card for a variety of reasons.
So you might be wondering: What is Walgreens’ gift card return policy? Here’s what I found!
Walgreens Gift Card Return Policy
Walgreens does not accept returns of any Walgreens or third-party gift cards, even if you have the original receipt. If you don’t need it at all, consider giving it as a gift to family or friends, or trade it in with regulars at Walgreens (or third-party stores) for cash.
Gift cards cannot be returned once purchased, what other options do you have? What if you don’t want to keep the gift card? Read on to find out!
Can I return a gift card at Walgreens if I have a receipt?
Walgreens stores tend to be more inclined to return items if the customer presents the original purchase receipt. However, Walgreens will not refund any gift cards at any store, even if you have the original receipt.
Can you return a Walgreens gift card within 30 days of purchase?
Walgreens has an official policy of accepting returns within 30 days of purchase.
However, this does not apply to gift cards (which are not refunded at all), so Walgreens will not refund gift cards even if you are within the 30 day period.
What if I don’t want to keep the gift card?
If you have Walgreens Gift Cards that you don’t want to keep, you may consider the following options:
- Give this gift card (as a gift) to family or friends on special occasions like birthdays or wedding anniversaries
- Exchange gift cards for cash with those who regularly visit the associated chain
- You can use your Walgreens Gift Card to buy “prescription drugs, general merchandise, over-the-counter drugs, cosmetics, electronics, and groceries.”Next time you want to buy something from this list, head to Walgreens and use a gift card to pay for the product
