Where can I find Dove aerosol antiperspirant near Enfield, NS?

My best friend had to sacrifice her beloved Dove dry spray at YYZ security yesterday. (She’s somehow never had a problem at US or UK airports, but this is her first visit to Canada.) We are now at a hotel near YHZ, with plans to drive up to Moncton later today. She’s showering now, and by her own admission the B.O. clock will start as soon as she gets out of the shower. Please assume no other deodorant will do.
Yeah, I can’t believe I’m spending a question on this either, but (a) BFFs, and (b) we’re sharing a car and accommodations for the next week, so I have a vested interest.
Bonus points for any place that isn’t a Wal-Mart, is on our way to NB, and/or will accept her Discover Card.

One of the big pharmacy chains in Canada is called Shoppers Drug Mart. I am pretty sure I've seen dove spray there. The chain of grocery stores "Atlantic Superstore" is owned by the same parent company and it looks like there is one just north of Enfield, so that also might be worth a stop. It's a nice chain grocery store and would also make a good snack stop.
I did the drive from Halifax to Fredericton this summer and it's really lovely, and I hope you plan to stop at the Hopewell rocks.

Shoppers definitely sells it, and there are plenty of them around Halifax.

EDIT: Damn, missed it by a second. :(
You're going to have the best luck hitting any major grocery store (Atlantic Superstore, Sobeys) and lord knows there are lots right off the highway. If not that, try any Shoppers Drug Mart, Lawtons, or Jean Couteau. It is a very common brand here. I 100% know it is at Shoppers. If you decide to wait until you get to Moncton, depending upon where you are staying you'll probably pass MULTIPLE drug stores that you can pop in to.
And welcome to Altantic Canada! You missed the REALLY good leaves by about a week, but it will still be a gorgeous drive.
PS - True story, my office keeps a can of Dove deoderant spray in the ladies bathroom for emergencies.
