Getting free stuff on your birthday

It’s my birthday! I’m taking the day off from dissertating today to do a whole lot of nothing. I’m going to have lunch with friends, eat clearance Valentine’s Day candy, and play with the new serger my mom and sister bought me.

Anyway, this post is about getting free stuff for your birthday. Here’s what I have so far:

• Sign up for Anthropologie’s Anthro Card and you can get 15% off your total purchase.
• Boloco will give you a free burrito when you register your Boloco card
• I got a free sandwich and cookie when I signed up for Au Bon Pain’s eClub
• Zoe’s Kitchen in Harvard Square sent me a coupon for a B1G1 entree
• b.good gave me a free burger or salad for joining their family
• Sephora gave me a free bottle of birthday cake body wash for being a Beauty insider
• Ben & Jerry’s will give you free ice cream
• Finale will give you a free birthday dessert when you register with Sweet Rewards
• Aveda will give you a free gift when you sign up for their birthday program
• Panera gives you free food when you register your card and on your birthday

What are your favorite birthday freebies? Boston.com has a few more suggestions here. I’ll pass on the free spray tan. Budget Savvy Diva posts a birthday freebie every Wednesday, so check out her archives to see what you can get.
