Give Nebraska Beef for xmas ;)

69 people have said their piece on this post. What say you?

Being from the Midwest I love steak… love love love it. That is one of the things I hate when I travel coastal is they *think* they have decent steaks…. its kind of like how we have decent seafood here in the midwest *blah*. Anyway if you are looking for a last minute gift for someone or for yourself for Christmas I highly recommend going with Omaha steaks . Also I have used Omaha steaks to compensate people who do work for me but are unmotivated by money (DAMN THEM!). When you order Omaha steaks they come in a sweet little cooler packed in dry ice that lasts a while.





ADD SIDENOTE: If you never have played with dry ice there are many fun things you can do…

They currently have a 55% off deal which is pretty fricking awesome:

The Holiday Fanfare (#7870YHZ)
4 (5 oz.) Filet Mignons
4 (5 oz.) Top Sirloins
4 (4 oz.) Boneless Pork Chops
2 (4.5 oz.) Stuffed Sole with Scallops and Crab
4 (4 oz.) Gourmet Burgers
8 (3 oz.) Gourmet Franks
10 Potatoes au Gratin

All for only $99 (normally $222.00)

    Agree steak is awesome. Especially with A1 steak sauce ;)

    Those steaks are mouth-watering to tell. I have ate lots of state in my life; $2 McDonalds to $80. These steaks are grilled to almost perfection. If I ever been there, I gonna try for sure. Until then I have to settle with our east-coast sea-food.

    Go with the Angus!

    Agreed it’s a great gift. But… I’ve had some problems with them in the past. Ordered some gifts and they tele-spammed me afterwards. I don’t mind the ocassional email from people I’ve bought things from, but calling me out of the blue asking me to re-up is not ok. You haven’t had that problem?

  5. ShoeMoney said on December 17th, 2007 at 2:52 pm

    I get a lot of regular mail and email from them but I have never gotten a phone call… that would piss me off

  6. Andy said on December 17th, 2007 at 2:53 pm

    If a steak is done right you shouldn’t have to put any steak sauce on it. Actually, some places don’t even have sauce for your meat and it may be seen as an insult to the chef if you ask. If it is a poor cut of meat, OK, fine slop some sauce on there.

  7. DC said on December 17th, 2007 at 2:54 pm

    Has anyone been able to make the Omaha Steak offer work with PPC? I’ve tried it and lost money. But I didn’t try that hard. Just curious.

  8. ShoeMoney said on December 17th, 2007 at 2:55 pm

    I agree here in the midwest if you ask for a1 the chef will come out and ask you what the problem is =P

    hmmm, I’ll just stick to a subway. ;)

    good to hear, maybe they decided it was a bad idea. maybe time to give them another shot.

  11. Home Business Blog said on December 17th, 2007 at 3:23 pm

    Also when ordering in the midwest or in Alberta for Canada… Anything but well done = really bloody. The way it should be.

  12. Keith Cash said on December 17th, 2007 at 3:23 pm

    My favorite is the Angus steak.

    I agree with No steak sauce. You can really that the meat with out it.

    Cheers

  13. Bathroom Hero said on December 17th, 2007 at 3:24 pm

    ny strip steak is great

  14. Hustle Strategy said on December 17th, 2007 at 3:36 pm

    I need to get that extra freezer soon.

  15. serge said on December 17th, 2007 at 3:51 pm

    went to buy some and forgot, my family doesn’t eat seafood :(
    Maybe I will send them out for Christmas gifts to some family. If so, expect a affiliate check from me (indirectly) for your Christmas present. I think you are smart to post this so close to Christmas, you are bound to do very well with it. (BTW, I have already given you $47 when I bought BANS.)

  16. Todd Mintz said on December 17th, 2007 at 4:11 pm

    People who ask for steak sauce with quality steak should be flogged.

  17. CPA Affiliates said on December 17th, 2007 at 4:21 pm

    Plus Omaha Steaks has a great affiliate program to go with the great steaks :)

  18. James said on December 17th, 2007 at 4:31 pm

    Was considering them since I’m a big meat lover. Until I read they are GRAIN FED cattle. Sorry but this is settling for less - nothing short of GRASS FED, free range, 100% organic for me. Try blackwing meats when you’re ready for the real deal - I just ordered over 100 lbs of their bison.

    PS: In the United States, cattle in concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs) are typically fed corn, soy and other types of feed that can include “by-product feedstuff” such as stale pastry, candy, and recycled municipal garbage. As a high-starch, high-energy food, corn decreases the time to fatten cattle and increases yield from dairy cattle. These cattle are called corn-fed or grain-fed.

    i actually wasnt a bans affilaite (recheck the post ) ;) I should have been though lol

  20. ShoeMoney said on December 17th, 2007 at 4:34 pm

    i will let you know how it goes. I heard it was pretty good

  21. BBQ Man said on December 17th, 2007 at 4:34 pm

    As an avid barbecue fanatic I can tell you that Omaha Steaks is the real deal. The meat you get from them is top choice and high quality…….. Not too fat not too lean….just right. When it arrives it is packaged very well.

    I definitely agree with “Shoe” on this one……………. makes a great gift too.

  22. Affiliate Unleashed said on December 17th, 2007 at 4:58 pm

    I love A1 sauce though. I think it enhances the flavor. :) Heheh.

  23. Affiliate Unleashed said on December 17th, 2007 at 5:01 pm

    I LOVE Steak! I might get this for my family. I know my Dad would love it.

  24. Technology Slice said on December 17th, 2007 at 5:02 pm

    You can’t go wrong with steak!

  25. Affiliate Confession said on December 17th, 2007 at 5:08 pm

    I’m not into beef, but dry ice sure is cool.

  26. Jens said on December 17th, 2007 at 5:19 pm

    I’m lookin’ for some horse meat. Know where I can get some of that?

  27. VacationGuy said on December 17th, 2007 at 5:24 pm

    forget clients, I think I might order that for me

  28. Smith said on December 17th, 2007 at 5:32 pm

    id buy it just to play around with the dry ice

  29. nashville music said on December 17th, 2007 at 6:05 pm

    Have heard a lot about the steaks but have not tasted them before. $99 does seem like a pretty good deal for what all you get tho.

  30. StilettoKix said on December 17th, 2007 at 6:07 pm

    From the midwest too, and know what you mean about steaks on either coast. Great review on Omaha Steaks. Have considered ordering from them, and now I think I will give them a try. (now I’m hungry) lol

  31. youfoundjake said on December 17th, 2007 at 6:08 pm

    I have always been apprehensive about receiving meat through the mail, seems wrong to me.

  32. The Burchie said on December 17th, 2007 at 6:10 pm

    OMG Shoemoney! I have done some crazy shit with dry ice. Believe it or not, you can actually swallow it, and it won’t hurt you, just drink water. You’ll have the best burps you’ve ever had in ur life. Also, blowing bottles up with it is classic fun.

    Love the site, I’m learning how to put money in my pocket every day. Late!

    You sure can’t Steak is ace :)

  35. Nicholas James said on December 17th, 2007 at 6:53 pm

    Shoe you should really .htaccess your link.php?go= thing ;)

  36. jbwebs said on December 17th, 2007 at 6:57 pm

    Please everyone note that this is an advertisement. Shoemoney is so desperate to make $ now, he has to advertise steaks on his website with Azoogle affil links. How low will you go?

  37. Gary R. Hess said on December 17th, 2007 at 7:01 pm

    Omaha?!? Bah! KC Strips are [i]the[/i] steak. Nothing beats KC BBQ Mmmm…

  38. Harrison Gevirtz said on December 17th, 2007 at 7:14 pm

    im really unimpressed with this post. This is a blog about making money ( you even talk about affiliate stuff) and your pushing steak offers to us.

    wow

  39. Smith said on December 17th, 2007 at 7:33 pm

    i thought it was a good change of pace. its 1 post, he probably didnt have another post ready or something

  40. jn said on December 17th, 2007 at 7:38 pm

    This post is a great example of how to monetize your blog.

  41. Affiliate Confession said on December 17th, 2007 at 8:01 pm

    Hey Shoe, are you going to let us know how much you make from this post like on the Yahoo Search Marketing one you talked about at BLogworld?

  42. Smith said on December 17th, 2007 at 9:09 pm

    i hope he does, i love transparent things like that

  43. Anna Do Good said on December 17th, 2007 at 9:12 pm

    Is that an affiliate link there? That is SO unethical!

  44. Mike Huang said on December 17th, 2007 at 9:30 pm

    Ordering “MEAT” online…I don’t know about this Shoe…

    -Mike

  45. Warren said on December 17th, 2007 at 10:02 pm

    Another thing for the dry ice… you can make homemade root beer to wash that steak down!

  46. Ken Savage said on December 17th, 2007 at 10:04 pm

    What a bum out. Way to bring us down. My mouth is watering and all I’m thinking about is meat. Damn, I even got the meat sweats just thinking about it.

  47. jim said on December 17th, 2007 at 11:33 pm

    are these steaks really any better than ones you can get at the store?

  48. jim said on December 17th, 2007 at 11:33 pm

    hahahahahah YEAH! making money is unethical! :)

  49. jim said on December 17th, 2007 at 11:34 pm

    it’s packed with dry ice, it’s okay, but to be safe you can just buy them from the local store and you probably wouldn’t be the wiser

  50. Contest Beat said on December 17th, 2007 at 11:49 pm

    Your first affiliate link post I believe :D

  51. Small Business Marketing said on December 18th, 2007 at 4:00 am

    Yum! Now how can we concentrate after seeing those?

  52. lyricsreg said on December 18th, 2007 at 7:25 am

    Damn … that’s a lot of steak

  53. Fiscal Musings said on December 18th, 2007 at 7:42 am

    That’s a pretty sweet deal. I’ll have to look into it (and see what the wife thinks…)

  54. Tracy Robinson said on December 18th, 2007 at 8:31 am

    This post ties excellently in to your post below on smart ways to monetize your blog, now if I could just get you to use my Omaha Steaks affiliate ID I would be rolling in the moo-lah.

  55. OM Ads said on December 18th, 2007 at 9:40 am

    look Nice in picture, i hope that’s healty too.

  56. Blindhog said on December 18th, 2007 at 11:52 am

    I sent a package to a client this year. Omaha Steaks make a nice gift. I wish I had seen this deal before ordering though.

  57. bunni said on December 18th, 2007 at 1:49 pm

    This is what its come to? Pushing Omaha Steaks affiliate offers in your blog?

  58. Mark Hankins said on December 18th, 2007 at 6:31 pm

    Not pimpin’ for the place, but when you get to Tampa try Bern’s … been here forever, claims world’s widest wine variety available (wine list is like a phone book). Steaks are their specialty the way stone crab’s are Joe’s.

  59. Joeychgo said on December 18th, 2007 at 11:07 pm

    sweet deal

  60. Ginene said on December 19th, 2007 at 11:16 am

    This looks good! Now I am even more hungrier for lunch.

  61. Reverse Funnel System said on December 19th, 2007 at 2:26 pm

    Im hungry now :P Looks tasty

  62. Help Save Santa said on December 20th, 2007 at 10:45 am

    Omaha Steaks make a great corporate holiday gift. People are always EXTREMELY impressed when they get a nice package like this.

  63. Dustin said on December 21st, 2007 at 3:45 am

    I’ll be honest with you, that looks like a good meal right there :) But I see Omaha Steaks all over and maybe its the size of the pictures but the meals look small… call me stupid but they do =-O

  64. SUV said on December 26th, 2007 at 8:08 am

    it looks tasty :) hmm im hungry :=)

  65. MonetizeYourBlog said on January 3rd, 2008 at 1:24 pm

  66. Real Lottery Winner said on January 13th, 2008 at 1:40 pm

    funny I ran across this, I got a box of Omaha steaks for Christmas and they are the most delicious cuts of meat I have ever eaten. What do you get the guy who has everything? Omaha steaks! Love my mom!
