Food Savings

First of all, I want to apologize for not keeping up with my blog lately. I thought life would be easier once my daughter started preschool, but it only has seemed to have become busier! At any rate, I'm back and hopefully will be better at posting deals!

I know saving money, especially on food, has become a priority for many given the current state of the economy. Here's some money saving coupons and deals from around the blogosphere that should help you stay afloat.

FOOD DEALS
- Get 14 hamburgers and a cutting board for $1.98 (includes shipping) from Omaha Steaks, thanks to this post by My Good Cents. If you prefer to get all meat (no cutting board), you can get 20 hamburgers for $1.98 by tweaking her directions slightly as follows:

1) Go here and click on “Register and Save with Omaha Steaks”. This is for Geico Privileges and it is FREE to join and you do not have to be a member. You will receive a code in your email for $25 off at Omaha Steaks – I waited overnight for mine to show up in my mailbox, but some people say that it will take about two hours.

2) Once you get your gift certificate, click on this link http://www.shareomahasteaks.com/k/NzcsMgUYGikBFoYKBCkDCQoFBgs=/143747/trtmnt/11860/. This link will get you 12 hamburgers for FREE, but only when you click through it. (PLEASE NOTE: this link offers me a bonus when people order; if you'd prefer not to do this, use this link instead www.shareomahasteaks.com)

3) Go to the “Burgers” section and add the eight (8) 5 oz Omaha Steak Burgers for $12.99 in your cart.

4) Go to “Checkout” and you should see the 8 burgers you ordered, plus the 12 for free.

5) Enter the $25 gift certificate code from Geico.

6) Your grand total, including shipping, will be $1.98! That’s about 10 cents per burger!
