We don’t know about you, but birthdays are our favorite holidays. Whether you’re celebrating your own day or a loved one’s, it’s a wonderful opportunity to come together and make memories, or simply spend the day treating yourself to all of your favorite things.
We also believe that on your birthday, you shouldn’t have to spend a single penny — and thankfully, there are so many businesses that go out of their way to shower you with free gifts and attention on your special day.
Here’s the scoop. To redeem birthday deals at most of these locations, you will have to sign up for a rewards program or download the app in order to redeem the free item, but often signing up has its own perks — like a free entrée on your next visit, or invites to special member-only events throughout the year. In our minds, there are no downsides to these deals.
From morning coffee to dessert and even the movie theater, we’ve rounded up the local businesses that provide you with freebies on or near your birthday. It’s time to start celebrating!
