On the edge – Wordless Wednesday Honey Kix cereal review (closed)

For a “reel” date night, try McCormick & Schmick’s (closed)

151 comments

Ohhhh my goodness, I can’t even remember the last time I went to the movies with my husband. It’s been that long. When it was just the two of us we would do dinner and a movie several times a week. But that was when the economy was booming! :)

This summer, one of the most popular seafood restaurants in the U.S. is doing something about that little dilemma that so many of us are dealing with.

McCormick & Schmick’s Seafood Restaurants are helping to revive date night with a special offer: through September, or while supplies last, purchase any dinner entrée and receive an unrestricted movie ticket for only $5.00. If you’ve been to the movies lately, you know that $5.00 is a steal for a movie ticket these days! So splurge on delicious crab cakes or lobster, but don’t waste your butter on popcorn.

Not only that, but anyone can enter to win a trip to the 2010 Sundance Film Festival just by entering the McCormick & Schmick’s Reel to Reel Sweepstakes, which will roll out the red carpet at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival. The grand prize includes airfare and hotel for two to Park City, Utah, and VIP passes to party with the stars at Sundance!

So are you looking for a little recession-proof romance this summer? Thanks to McCormick & Schmick’s, my husband and I will be having a date night this Friday… and now you can, too! They are providing one of my readers with a $25.00 dining certificate to one of their restaurants. (I’ve never been, but have heard their Happy Hour is amazing!)

To enter, please visit McCormick & Schmick’s website and locate the restaurant nearest you. There are more than 80 locations across the country! Leave a comment telling me which one you’d go to if you win.
