Where to Sign Up for Birthday Deals

As my Birthday has come and passed, I have been receiving all kinds of great offers and freebies.  It would be wrong of me not to share.  The following are the places I got deals from.  You just go to their website and sign up for email alerts.  Remember to use a junk email because they will send you emails throughout the year and then when your birthday month comes up or even around the holidays, check the emails for any exciting deals!

1) Corner Bakery:  They usually send you a coupon for a free dessert during your birthday month.  No one wants to pass up free dessert!


2) Express:  You get a gift card in the mail to use on any non-clearance merchandise anytime during your birthday month.  This year I got a $40 gift card, which was kind of awesome.

3) American Eagle Outfitters:  Yes, it still exists.  You get 15% off your purchase anytime during the month of your birthday.

4) Poag Mahone's:  If you live in Chicago, this is a great place to sign up.  They send you a $15 off coupon for food items the month of your birthday.  They have really good food and drinks specials, so it's a great b-day treat.

5) Champps:  They send you emails with all their deals throughout the year and then on your birthday they send you a coupon for a free dessert.   

6) Alloy:  This clothing store sends you a coupon for $20 off your purchase of $50.  A good deal only if you planned to shop there anyway.

7)  Southwest Airlines:  They send you a promo code for $50 off your next vacation including flight and hotel.  Could be nice, as long as the timing is right..

8) DSW: They sent me $5 off my next order on the week of my b-day.  Plus you randomly get $10 off cards throughout the year.

9)Panera:  Panera loads a "special treat" onto your rewards card that you get through the store and you have 60 days from your birthday to redeem it.  I have no idea what my special treat is as I have not redeemed it yet.

10) Dairy Queen:   If you sign up for the Blizzard fan club, throughout the year you will get bogo free offers and an extra one on your birthday.

Starbucks/AP

11) Starbucks:  I heard that you get a free coffee on your birthday, but I forgot to test that out yesterday.  In theory, you get a free coffee or some sort of food discount if you have signed up for rewards and have a gift card that you use to earn those rewards.

Yeah for freebies and discounts!
