Default Has anyone ordered Omaha Steaks?

They are running some Mother's Day sale I didn't pay attention to on the TV.

Our 1st introduction to them was when someone gifted them to us during a time of medical issues. It was a nice thought. We then went on and ordered from them a couple more times. The "only" thing is THEN you're on their radar and they keep calling to offer deals etc. THAT is aggravating! One thing with them is, I wish you could select only what you want. They only offer package deals and some of the items aren't wanted or useful.

I have a friend who orders these packages when they are on sale and is very happy with them. She told me that if she puts them in her cart and leaves them there they send her additional discounts or free shipping as an added incentive to place her order.

This is not true. You can order individual items in any quantity. Or create you own combo.
I have been satisfied with orders from them.

I wasn't going to ask about the Tilapia but the Deal Mommy?

I try to give a worthwhile link that is less than a year old. DealMommy was written June 2, 2017 and may save money on your steak order.

You seem to know a lot that I don't when it comes to all things computer. Do you know how to do this? I tried and failed.

When I go to google 99% of the time I only want to search for information that is less then a year old BY DEFAULT without clicking Tools, Time, Past Year.

That would be a short cut time saver for me and likeminded researchers.

I sometimes search for things I am interested in and also put in the year 2018. Sometimes works well sometimes doesn't. I actually just keep adjusting my search criteria by changing a word or phrase until I get what I want.

I really don't think you need to order steaks online. You can buy Prime steaks at Sam's club, which are better than Omaha. Another online option is Allen Brothers, which have much better quality, but also much more expensive.

It might be a good practical present to send remotely. I was hoping to hear good reviews of the meat and the prices on the on-sale packages.

Have not purchased any recently but all in all not too bad. Keep an eye out for their specials since the pricing is a bit more reasonable. You can opt out from the phone call barrage by telling them to take you off the list. I liked their hamburgers.

If you have money to burn, there is always Peter Luger or Lobel's for the best.

I figured it out. Now when I search by default I see everything that is no older then 1 year.

I looked up a relative that gets in the news quite a bit and it worked.
