It’s Your Birthday!
Let’s be real birthdays are better when you’re getting spoiled. While a free latte or slice of cake is always sweet, there is only so much food you can eat in a day. That’s why I’ve rounded up 10 birthday freebies that aren’t food from popular brands that don’t involve food. Think candles, skincare, accessories, and more because your birthday deserves a glow-up from head to toe.
How do you get the Freebie?
To unlock these birthday freebies, make sure you’re signed up for each brand’s rewards program or email list. Most of them are totally free to join and take just a minute to set up. The birthday gifts are usually sent via email or app notifications, so it’s a good idea to download the brand’s app and keep an eye on your inbox as your birthday gets closer. Some offers are good for the whole month, while others are only valid for a few days, so don’t wait too long to claim your treats!
Also make sure to sign up a few weeks before your birthday to make sure you’re on their radar. I typically recommend signing up at least a month or two before as some brands can have a cut off for the signup period for the birthday month.
Pro Tip: Create an email similar to your email but add a “C” or “B” which stands for commercial/businesses. Some businesses send out a lot of emails. If you create an email designated for it, you can avoid cluttering your main email. That way, you can enjoy all the freebies without cluttering your email inbox!
