When we called tonight, they assured us all promos were cancelled on the Geico orders. Do you know if anyone got their order with the free burgers?

Seems unfair that a gift card would negate their free offer, since they are getting the same amount of cash. Oh, well, $1.98 for 8 hamburgers isn't bad, but I will not order from Omaha Steaks again!

I did the order on Monday, and (after quite a bit of time getting the links to work and all that) I ordered stuffed baked potatoes, plus the free cutlery set & 6 hamburgers for $1.98. But I just checked and I had an email from Omaha Steaks saying that because I used the rewards card from Geico I couldn't get the free gift because you can't combine promotions. I guess it's still an ok deal, but not nearly as exciting.... <br/>Has anyone else gotten this message? I'm bummed.

Hi Mercedes,
I am really frustrated. I signed up Monday and got the e-cert code but did not use it right away. I waited and now I click back on my link and it says there should be a minimum of $100 purchase.

According to Geico, there was an overwhelming response with this offer and Omaha Steaks updated/changed it just this morning.

I should have used it right away.
Darn.

It didn't work when I used other people's links only when I entered http://www.geicoprivileges.com/steaks and even that took a couple tries. so there's still hope for those that haven't gotten the deal yet if you have another email address you can use I just had to tell you that I did get my email with a code and it is still working.
