LCBO Food & Drink Magazine (Ontario)

Few more days until the Autumn 2019 issues land in stores next week (September 11)!

*Update-it's Sept.11 but the store was not open this morning when I was in the area, so I don't know if there are coupons or bagged content. Hmm, they don't work...
Evening-the bagged issue contained a Stoney Creek Furniture supplement and mention of a 50th anniversary contest.

If you got a copy, can you share if there are any inserts/deals/coupons or extras? Thanks

Thanks for these reminders. I totally missed the summer issue and just managed to get one in store today by accident!

Not sure why the digital links are not working.

Stampede your LCBO stores on Nov. 13 for the Holiday issues!

Two more days until Holiday issue is available.

Update, Nov 14: So my copy at the Ancaster West LCBO was bagged and there are a few coupons:

Not on the Starbucks ad but on the Sodastream ad on p. 61, a glued on booklet of beverage recipes plus
3 coupons (all expiring on April 30, 2020): 1) Save $20 on purchase of Sodastream unit (sorry I forgot my note) that is retail priced $95 or more; 2: Save $1 off Sodastream bottles; 3) Save $1 off Sodastream flavours (Classic, and two other kinds..) Will update on Sat when I find my notes!

p. 161 Save $2 off Ferrero Rocher Gallery collection 122g or more. Expires on Dec. 24, 2019
Psst: Longo's has the 122g gallery box on sale for $6.99 this week!

4 Inserts with the magazine:
Leon's Hello
Yellow Holiday magazine-no recipes but back cover has that text to win $2K contest.

Hello Fresh card with a code card worth 55% off your first order if redeemed in the first 30 days.

Teppermans Holiday booklet-back cover has $25 off purchase card (with qualification it's for LCBO customers (not sure how they'd check that) to clip out on purchase in-store. Expiry date is Dec. 31, 2019? No mention of min. purchase (not sure what you can get for $25 and would it be ok to use in their cafe where there is popcorn and such? Because I'd totally want to spend $25 at the cafe if I could!)

Dairy Farmers of Ontario (Milk)-some cookie and beverage recipes plus some Ontario Cheese and Charcuterie pairings suggestions. Mention of contest open to ON residents only to win those big cheese prizes.

As for the magazine itself-if you need LCBO drink ideas, there are plenty. Recipe-wise, not really appealing to me. Three recipes that might get my attention are the skillet s'mores cookie (large skillet size), the warm lentil salad and that third recipe which I forgot...oh, it was the cranberry bacon muffins near the back as appetizers. I'll post the muffin recipe (uses a stuffing mix!) on Saturday.

Let's see if the online links work for this issue: uh, they don't....

Next issue will come out on March 11, 2020!

Just over a month to go until the Spring issue of the magazine is available in stores.

Saw a tweet yesterday changing the release date of the new issue-now it's March 25!

The issue was out on Wednesday and called the Special Environmental Sustainability Issue. Did not find much in recipes that appealed to me beyond a couple of them. Some alternative milk beverage recipes were in the issue. Have recycled most of the pages so far...

Next issue is due out in May!

Update: expected on or around May 13, 2020 in local stores.

Mom came home with a copy of the Early Summer 2020 Issue from the store tonight.

Inside-some summery meals, doughnut and salad recipes, what to do if you have one of these five ingredients in your pantry meal ideas and beverage recipes. No coupons/no inserts. Mention of Matchbox Garden in Caledonia as produce vendor and seed seller.

Next issue date is not shown. But there will be more summer recipes.

Hadn't known that the Autumn Issue of Food and Drink came out on Sept. 9:

Family have been in stores lately but no one has brought home a copy. I will see if I can still get a print copy.

Did anyone see any coupons or offers within the magazine?

I just looked over my copy of the Autumn 2020 LCBO magazine, and no offers or coupons inside.

But, IMO, the LCBO magazine is still one of the best freebies around Love it!

@kava5 I was able to score a copy at the Meadowlands location of the LCBO. The rack is now in the entryway. The store still has a few copies of the Summer issue too.

I like the casual Thanksgiving dinner meal in the current issue, as it the meal reflects the smaller gathering protocol for COVID rules. That beet/chocolate brownie recipe-the photo looks awesome. Just need to know how much effort beet wrangling takes (and subsequent colour release during cooking) to get the puree needed to top the brownie.

Four interviews with female vintners from the Niagara Region are in the issue also.

Have to get my copy today, as I had my hands full pushing a shopping cart yesterday.

[Ciel]

Spring 2021, likely March, will be the next issue. Meanwhile, I have some saved pages from issues past that still thrill me to read!
