October's Choice of the Month

For October's Choice of the Month, I'm going with my favorite sit-down place for burgers and fries: Red Robin.

By joining the Red Robin eClub, you get your choice of any one of their gourmet burgers during the week before or the week after your birthday. You get to pick any hamburger on their menu, ranging from around $7.00 to up to $10.00 or so, depending on the area in which you live.

In addition, you also get a coupon when you sign up, usually for a certain dollar amount (most recently $3) off your next purchase there, good for 2 weeks from when you signed up.

They also occasionally send you promotional emails, including specials (Cheeseburger and Fries for $5) or Celebrate National Fire Prevention Week with a free kids meal with purchase of 2 gourmet burgers, etc, etc.

So here's the rundown:

PROS: FREE great tasting burger on your birthday (or thereabouts). In addition, you always get the Bottomless Steak Fries. Always order more fries and a To-Go Box before you leave! Their strawberry lemonades are also superbly delicious!

CONS: Red Robin isn't everywhere, so if there's not one close to you, I'm sorry. Also, there are the occasional extra emails that aren't for "free stuff," but good for some type of lesser discount nonetheless.
