Black Angus Steakhouse provides an annual birthday offer to members of its Prime Club loyalty program. The specifics of the offer vary across different sources, but the primary benefit involves a free entree or steak dinner with conditions. To receive the birthday gift, customers must join the Black Angus Steakhouse eNewsletter or Prime Club at least one week before their birthday. The offer is typically sent via email. Registration is required in advance, and the birthday gift is valid for a limited time. The offer is valid at participating restaurant locations. Customers are advised to check the official Black Angus Steakhouse website for current program details.
The Prime Club and Registration Process
Membership in the Black Angus Steakhouse Prime Club is the gateway to the birthday offer. According to the source data, customers must sign up for the Black Angus Steakhouse eNewsletter to receive their birthday gift. Source [2] states, "Sign up for the Black Angus Steakhouse eNewsletter to receive your annual birthday gift." Source [3] clarifies that joining the Black Angus eClub is the method to receive an email coupon. Source [4] mentions that the steakhouse's "Prime Club" requests an email address to join. The registration process requires users to provide their email address. It is recommended to sign up approximately one week before the birthday to ensure receipt of the coupon, as noted in Source [3]. The email coupon is the primary method of redemption.
Offer Details and Value
The value of the birthday freebie is capped at a specific amount. Source [1] states the offer is a "free birthday entree up to $20." Source [3] confirms this limit, noting the maximum value of the free item is $20.99. The nature of the free item differs slightly between sources. Source [1] describes it as a "free birthday entree." Source [2] describes the offer as a "free Cowboy Cookie with purchase of an entrée." Source [3] describes the offer as a "FREE steak dinner when you purchase an additional entrée of equal or greater value." Source [4] also refers to the offer as a "free steak dinner." The discrepancy between a free entree/steak dinner (Source [1], [3], [4]) and a free dessert with purchase (Source [2]) suggests the offer may have changed over time or varies by location. Source [2] specifically notes that the current birthday gift is the free Cowboy Cookie.
Redemption and Restrictions
Redemption of the birthday offer is subject to specific rules. Source [2] outlines the redemption process: "Redeem your birthday gift by presenting printed coupon or displayed email on a smartphone." Source [2] also specifies that the offer is "Dine-in only w/ entree purchase." Source [3] lists several restrictions: * Valid for approximately 3 weeks around the birthday. * Maximum value is $20.99. * Not valid for lunch, delivery, or takeout orders. * Not valid in conjunction with any other coupon or special promotional discount. * Not valid on Easter Sunday, Mother’s Day, or Father’s Day. * The free item requires the purchase of an additional entrée of equal or greater value (Source [3]).
