Default Has anyone ever bought steaks online?

I have heard of Omaha Steaks has anyone ever ordered steaks or hamburger patties from them?

Sorry, I have heard about them for years, but never bought. We buy ours locally.

They 'll cost you a FORTUNE! Trust me, head to the local grocery. I'm lucky in that we raise our own beef and give it to family for Christmas, what we give them each year would cost over 100 from Omaha but costs us about 10 dollars max to raise

That is what I thought to, they seem way too expensive.

Out of my budget! We do not eat too much red meat here and I do look for great deals at the supermarket.

This is not steaks, but I ordered a bunch of pecan products from a catalog that specializes in them. They were real expensive and tasted no better than what you can buy in a store.

We were given Omaha Steaks as gifts, then got on their mailing list. They send offers ALL THE TIME. I took them up on one offer that was not too expensive. Their stuff is good, but probably no better than you can get at the grocery store if you buy the good cuts. I don't plan on ordering again unless they send me an awesome offer (not holding my breath...)
