817.1 | Omaha Steaks | BIGA2Z::DUGDALE | | Mon Nov 16 1987 15:52 | 15 |
| Try Omaha Steaks. They are a mail order firm and although I have
just placed my first order with them (a Christmas present for my
mother-in-law), I have been served their products by a friend.
They have an 800 number which I found in an advertisement in the
back of a Bon Appetit magazine. I'm sure that you could get the
number from 800 information. (Just dial 1-800-555-1212 and ask!)
They do advertise extensively in cooking magazines this time of
year.
If you do call, be sure and ask what is on special. It helps.
They are not cheap. Also note that you can specify delivery date.
We ordered several weeks ago for delivery the week of December 14th.

817.2 | Consumer Reports Dines In | VINES::BD | You know my name, look up the number! | Tue Nov 17 1987 10:53 | 4 |
| Consumer Reports had a review of mail order steaks (and other foods)
in the last month or two.

817.3 | Consumer Reports reviewers incompetant | PSW::WINALSKI | Paul S. Winalski | Thu Nov 19 1987 17:46 | 6 |
| Their review of mail order steaks was just as incompetant as most of their
reviews of consumer goods. I think they object to steaks because they don't
come with any safety device to prevent you from food-poisoning yourself if
you let them go bad and then eat them anyway.

My Mom called Omaha Steaks and was given a regular price for a steak.
She then asked if anything was on special and they had TWO of the first
mentioned steaks for less then the price of one! She was very pleased
and mail-ordered them for her brother-in-law.
Thanks Susan
