There's almost no way that would even be possible. It would require different chains of grocery stores to release their inventories to the public for another website to scrape the data. It won't happen.spinrsx wrote:so we have websites we can use to find lcbo products and TBS products.. any way to see which beers each grocery store has in stock?

Just wondering what were you expecting? I don't recall reading much ahead of the start of sales in grocery stores that lead me to believe that the selection or hours would be different from what was generally available in LCBOs.Lukie wrote:This entire grocery store project - both in terms of selection and hours of availability - has been a total let-down for me so far.
I've found the College Square Loblaws in Ottawa has a selection comparable to the LCBO next door and better than the Beer Store across the parking lot. Lots of Ontario craft, most notably Collective Arts which they've carried 5 or 6 of their beers.Lukie wrote:spinrsx wrote:so we have websites we can use to find lcbo products and TBS products.. any way to see which beers each grocery store has in stock?
Even if it were possible, I don't think I'd be worth the effort at least for now. Has anyone actually spotted an excellent beer yet at any of these stores? I see mostly crap, and an occasional decent IPA or a Stout, pretty much eschewing international craft. This entire grocery store project - both in terms of selection and hours of availability - has been a total let-down for me so far.

Big Rig Alpha Bomb, among others, is coming to select grocery stores soon. Is this the first example of beers being released exclusively to grocers, or is there an LCBO or TBS listing coming soon?
Sleeping Giant 360 Pale Ale has been available in grocery stores (I bought some at Loblaws at Lakeshore/Leslie). It is in the LCBO, but only in Thunder Bay.midlife crisis wrote:Isn't there a beer from Thunder Bay or somewhere up north that is in grocery stores but not LCBO?
Right, thanks, that is the one.S. St. Jeb wrote:Sleeping Giant 360 Pale Ale has been available in grocery stores (I bought some at Loblaws at Lakeshore/Leslie).

I wish we could get the wine/beer selection that American Costco gets. I do believe that Costco now has the greatest wine p urchasing power in the world, and I'm sure beer is much the same.
If Costco is indeed going to enter the game, my bet is they will offer something unique in addition to some of the basics.sofakingdrunk wrote:I know someone who works at Costco and they said that they will start selling beer. Although I'm sure it'll be no different than normal grocery stores sell.
