A Fun Magazine Find with Great Recipes and a Killer Deal on Cat Food

summarizeEditor's Summary

I picked up a magazine from my husband's recent shopping trip to Magnit, and it's been a fun surprise. The magazine itself is a decent size, over 100 pages long, and comes with an electronic version you can access by scanning the QR code on the cover. However, there's no clear info about the magazine's contents or features, just a barcode and a generic title. The table of contents is pretty standard, with a mix of articles and ads, but what really caught my attention was the abundance of advertising – it's not just a few scattered ads, but full-page spreads and even articles that are clearly sponsored. The best part? A killer deal on cat food that's worth every penny. With its mix of recipes, ads, and a great value on cat food, this magazine is a fun find that's definitely worth checking out.

I picked up a magazine from my husband's recent shopping trip to Magnit. He'd bought dishwasher tablets and was handed the magazine as a freebie - they only give them out if you spend over 1500 rubles, apparently. The magazine was a nice bonus.
At first glance, it looks like a decent-sized magazine, over 100 pages long. There's also an electronic version you can access by scanning the QR code on the cover. Unfortunately, there's no obvious information about the magazine's contents or features - just a barcode and a generic title.
The table of contents is pretty standard, with a mix of articles and ads. I was surprised to see how much advertising there is in the magazine - it's not just a few scattered ads, but full-page spreads and even articles that are clearly sponsored.
One of the articles caught my eye - it was about cleaning, and they'd included a few products from Magnit and MagnitKosmetik that they claimed would help make the task easier. I was skeptical at first, but it was an interesting read.
Another article that stood out was about proper cat care - it was a well-researched piece, but of course, it included a few sponsored mentions of cat food from Magnit.
I love using these magazines to create my own personal diary. Two years ago, I first started doing this with a MagnitKosmetik magazine, and I was blown away by the quality of the paper and the printing. This magazine's paper isn't as nice, feeling more like newspaper than journal-quality, but the printing is still top-notch. I love cutting out the pictures and illustrations and creating my own scrapbook pages.
What really caught my eye, aside from all the product images I wouldn't dare cut out, were the food pics and some of the ad pages. I'm particularly fond of these two spreads:
I'm definitely cutting out the lemon and pomegranate images for my diary. Why not? It's good to save the good stuff. Plus, it'll be a nice keepsake, since I don't have a color printer. Not just pictures, but funny slogans would be great for my diary too.
While flipping through the magazine, admiring and evaluating the images for their 'creative potential', I stumbled upon something that really caught my eye and wouldn't let go: the recipe for hot sandwiches.
the recipe on the right in this photoI tried making them and everyone loved them. I'm planning to serve them at my New Year's dinner. Next time, though, I won't be pan-frying them in butter – it got a bit too greasy, and the inside of the bread mixed with the filling turned into some kind of mush. So, I'll use a toaster instead. That'll be faster and better.
There are other recipes I've taken note of, but haven't tried yet:
I particularly liked:
Nutritional information is calculated for each recipeThe recipes use products available at MagnitSeparate cooking tips are providedThe recipes are beautifully illustrated (sometimes with a separate photo of the products, sometimes with a step-by-step photo of the preparation)I also stumbled upon a coupon page at the beginning of the magazine. I flipped through the magazine a few times and skipped this page, but I finally decided to take a look... And there's a 50% discount on Miratorg worms for dogs and cats!
I didn't take a photo of the coupon for dog wormsJust this product caught my attention, and I don't need anything else from this month's magazine. I've never clipped a coupon before, it's something I've only seen in American movies, but for some reason I decided to give it a try. I really wanted to buy Miratorg cat food at a discount. At first, I thought maybe this was a scam, and I went to check the prices on marketplaces. On Wildberries and Ozon, the minimum price for a box of worms (24 pieces) is 740 rubles. That's 30 rubles per piece. Yes, it's cheaper than buying one worm at MagnitKosmetik, but here there's a discount!
So I clipped the coupons and went to check if there was any trickery in the store's price tag. And everything was fine there too: the price tag was white (if there are other promotions on the product, there's no discount). The price of Miratorg worms is 31.99. With the discount, it'll be 15.99 per piece. Is it a good deal? Yes. I'll take 30 pieces (two flavors) and head to the checkout. The cashier scanned the product, scanned the coupon codes, and voila! I bought 30 worms for 478 rubles. The promotion is valid until the end of November, so I can come back and use the coupons again, because they can be used an unlimited number of times.
And here's the treasure for my cat:
I highly recommend checking out this magazine 🤓
- over a hundred pages - there's plenty to choose from and see;
- the image quality is good, clear, even though the paper is thin, like newspaper;
- the recipes use accessible products;
- There are informative articles available;
- You can find discount coupons too.
