ETA: Sadly, this deal is no longer available. As of this morning (10/22), several readers who did this reported getting a message stating that they must spend between $50-100 to redeem their gift code.
An Eagle-eyed Super Coupon Girl reader named Nicole sent me an email to tell me about a fantastic deal she saw on Thrifty Florida Mama. I was able to order 14 hamburgers, a cutlery set and a cutting board from Omaha Steaks last night for only $1.98, including shipping! Here’s how it works:
If you register for a website called Geico Privileges, they will email you a gift code good for $25 off a purchase at Omaha Steaks. It’s free and you don’t have to be a Geico customer to sign up. Stephanie at The Coupon Game warns that this offer may be over, however the link still says “Register And Save With Omaha Steaks”, so it ought to still work if they’re advertising it, unless they changed the gift code to a different amount. UPDATE: Two SCG readers wrote in to tell me that they just did the deal, and it worked like a charm, so the offer is still valid!
My code took about 5 hours to get through yesterday, so it can take a little while to show up in your inbox.
Once you get the code, surf on over to Wow-Coupons and click the third link down, that says “60% off The Ultimate Assortment and The Sizzling Sampler + FREE Omaha Steaks Burgers + FREE 6-Piece Cutlery Set + FREE Cutting Board”. This code will give you these freebies with any qualifying purchase. The cheapest qualifying items that I found were the franks and hamburgers; I chose 8 Omaha Steak Burgers for $12.99. The shipping is $13.99 for orders under $40, but here’s the great thing – the gift code applies to shipping, too! So I bought 8 hamburgers, and my freebie code added 6 more, plus the cutlery set and cutting board. My grand total came to $26.98 after shipping. I applied my $25 gift code, and it went down to $1.98!! Wow! I will take some pictures when the package arrives. I’m stoked about the cutlery set, because I need some new kitchen knives.
ETA: Reader Lorrie pointed out another variation of this deal on Money Saving Mom. Basically, if you don’t want the cutlery and cutting board, you can choose 12 burgers as your freebie instead, by following this link. Cool!
Thanks so much to reader Nicole and Thrifty Florida Mama for the info on this deal! The Geico lizard couldn’t save me any money on car insurance, but he sure got me a sweet deal on hamburger.
