Got favourites still sitting in your cart? Now’s the perfect time to bring them home. For a limited time, both new and existing My Best Buy account holders could win back the entire value of their next purchase! The more you spend, the more you could win, up to $5,000 gift card. All you have to do is check out with your account, and you’ll be automatically entered into the weekly draw. Stick with us to learn exactly how it works.
How to enter the contest?
Super easy with two steps only.
Step 1: Create a free My Best Buy account (or log in if you already have one)
Click here to sign up—or through the Best Buy Canada app. No long forms involved; it takes less than a minute! You can also pop into your nearest Best Buy and one of our friendly Blue Shirts will help you get set up.
Step 2: Make any purchase at Best Buy Canada
Is there a laptop you’ve been meaning to buy for back-to-school? What about that standing desk and those massive monitors you’ve been eyeing for your new work-from-home rig and gig? Or maybe you’re expecting, and need to stock up on baby essentials. Whatever it may be, buy them between August 1 and September 4, 2025, using your My Best Buy account.
After that, you’re all set—you’ll be automatically entered into the contest! Every week, over the span of five weeks, we will randomly draw one winner from each week of all eligible entries.
What if you don’t want to buy anything?
No problem, you can still enter the contest the old-school way. Just mail us a handwritten (or typed!) essay on the benefits of the My Best Buy program.
Be sure to include the following in your letter:
- Your full legal name
- Date of birth
- City or town of residence
- Phone number
- Email address
- Last but definitely not least, a 500-word essay on the benefits of the My Best Buy program

What can you win?
The lucky winner will get a gift card that’s worth exactly what they spend, for up to $5,000. So let’s say you’re getting a $3k + tax laptop for your 3D animation class, you could be winning $3k worth of gift card. And if you’re getting an 80-buck electric toothbrush (yes, Best Buy sells that!), you could be winning an 80-buck Best Buy gift card. The more you spend, the more you might win. You get the idea.
It also doesn’t matter how many products you buy—as long as it’s all in one transaction. Grab a portable AC for yourself or go all out with 10 to cool down the whole family. The prize amount for the gift card will equal the total amount of that order, not including tax. In other words, you can stock up on up to $5k worth of strollers, baby monitors, car seats, and more—all in one go, and get a chance to win $5k back.
In the case of a mail-in entry winner, they will win between $1 and $5,000. A random number generator, administered by Best Buy, will select the prize amount.
