In 2024, Mastermind Toys will come under new ownership and all gift cards will be invalid just before Christmas. For Ashley Krefting, a mom of three kids, this is disappointing news.
In 2024, Mastermind Toys will come under new ownership and all gift cards will be invalid just before Christmas.
For Ashley Krefting, a mom of three kids, this is disappointing news.
“My mother in law, who lives out of town, purchased gift cards for Mastermind for my kids to open up on Christmas and go shopping after Christmas, and I just learned this morning, after the 24th, they’re no longer honouring these gift cards,” she told CTV News on Friday.
Krefting said she called the Regina store after she saw social media posts online and asked if she could get a refund for the gift cards.
“They said no, they just have to come use the gift cards before the 24th,” she explained.
The mom of three said she’s frustrated because she has shopped there for many years for Christmas and birthday gifts.
"I think I'll have to look for some other toy store, which is disappointing because this is convenient and I always liked it, I also don't want to support a business that treats customers that way," she said.
