McCormick and SchmicksWho loves to eat out?  Who loves to go to the movies?  I know I do!  In my family growing up, we would go to the movies on both the day after Thanksgiving and the day after Christmas.  It was family tradition and something I looked forward to.  With the upcoming holidays, many of us will also head out with our families to catch new movies at the movie theatre, such as “Twilight’s New Moon,” “Planet 51,” or “Sherlock Holmes.”  A recent AMC poll even showed that 75 percent of respondents will see a movie over Thanksgiving Vacation.  I wonder what the percentage will be over Christmas?

McCormick and Schmicks2McCormick & Schmick’s is offering “Reel to Reel,” a promotion which gives any diner who purchase an entree to have the option of adding a premium movie ticket to a local movie theatre for just $5.00.  If you’ve been to the movies lately, you know that’s a screaming deal.  I know where we’ll be going for our next date! 

Mccormick and schmicks reel to reelI’ve been wanting to eat at McCormick & Schmick’s for a long time now.  When I go, I think I’ll order the Sea Scallops or maybe even the Perfect Combination.  Afterwards, we can go and see “2012” or “Planet 51!”  Thanks McCormick & Schmick’s for such an amazing deal!

In celebration of the upcoming holidays and “Reel to Reel,” McCormick & Schmick’s is offering a $25 gift card to 1 lucky reader on The Mommy-Files!!!!
