I've been buying Omaha meat for quite some time now and after the first or second purchase, they started with the annoying phone calls. I simply told them that I never buy anything from telemarketers (true) and that I would continue to order from Omaha thru the website, provided they STOP the calls immediately. If not, they could expect zero orders from me in the future. That ended the calls. Never got another one.

I did pay for my order myself though and that is what I was referring too. As far as touting these steaks to make money, I've made $50 so far. Its not like anyone's getting rich or enough to even pay for my server. However, my wife and I talked about it before your post even and we are donating all Omaha Steak's affiliate earnings to buy a goat for a family via <a href="https://secure1.heifer.org/gift-catalog" rel="nofollow">Heifer</a>. If we don't sell enough to pay for a goat, we will probably gift a set of chicks and ducks. Ideally would like to gift a few goats, so the more anyone buys, the more animals we will be gifting. Like I said $50 this month and its the best month of the year. I don't make much from this Mark so take it easy. Yes those affiliate links are there.

I did get a few phone calls where I asked them to remove me from their list. I haven't received anything other than email specials. This review is completely 100% honest of my experience with Omaha Steaks. Is it the best steak I've ever eaten in my life? No. I've eaten at The Palm, Capital Grille, Morton's, Prime 112. Its nowhere near that. However, it was better than 90% of the store bought steaks I've gotten at the grocery store or at any BJs or Costco. I've bought a lot of meat at those two price clubs in my years. I should probably do an updated review of the product since its been awhile. I’ll say this I never received anything in the mail.

It states the writer was not paid for the review. But why are there buttons to click to order from Omaha? Why doesn't the review mention the annoying marketing that follows the first purchase, as mentioned by another reviewer. I guess I'm doubting the appropriate use of the word "honest" in the title.

We actually have Pergo floors. We are not in love with them other than the color. I guess the durability is nice too. We installed them over our tile floors that were here. So there are parts that are uneven do to the tile underneath. Its been about 3 years+ since we did the kitchen and its holding up fine without any problems. Oh we went with the Pergo because we got a steal on the price. Otherwise we would rip the old tile out and do stained concrete floors or Jerusalem stone or something similar. We actually bought extra medium brown to renovate one or more bathrooms. Thanks for your nice comments.
