Who said you can’t receive birthday gifts after you become an adult? Many companies are happy to give you free stuff on your birthday. In fact, there are more freebies than you can humanly consume on your special day!
If you currently dread turning a year older, these birthday freebies can be an exciting way to celebrate another year of life with your friends and family. And, you might even start a new birthday tradition! No, we’re not talking about scheduling your annual physical or making sure all of your important documents and designated beneficiaries are up to snuff.
Bonus Birthday Tip: When you share your opinion with Swagbucks during your birthday month, they will send you bonus Swagbucks which can be redeemed for a free gift card!
We all like getting free stuff so we can spend less money each month, and joining birthday clubs is a natural next step to living a frugal lifestyle.

Where to Get Free Stuff On Your Birthday

FAQs
But What If It’s Not My Birthday Yet?
Not to worry! If it’s not your birthday quite yet you can still grab free food when you sign up for any of these free food apps.
Can You Only Get Free Stuff On Your Birthday If You Join a Rewards Club?
Most restaurants and retailers only offer free birthday stuff if you join the email list or rewards program. This isn’t always true and you can ask your restaurant host or store cashier if they offer birthday specials.
After all, how many times does the staff sing happy birthday when you go to a sit-down restaurant these days? If your answer is quite often, there’s a good chance you don’t have to join the rewards club to get a free birthday surprise.
Of course, belonging to the rewards club means a potentially more valuable birthday freebie. As a tradeoff, you’re going to receive regular emails or app notifications from the company about the latest offers and specials.
If you don’t go there on a regular basis, the birthday freebie might not be worth the hassle.
Is Purchase Necessary To Get a Birthday Freebie?
In most cases yes, you need to make a purchase to redeem your birthday coupon. You usually have to buy a meal to get your free appetizer or dessert. While some restaurants still offer free meals with no strings attached, you usually have to buy a second meal to get yours for free.
You still save money if you’re going to visit these restaurants or stores anyway, but these places of business know that free birthday gifts are an excellent way to increase business if you bring your friends and family along.
Why Are The Free Birthday Offers Different From the Description?
Variety is the spice of life. Just like you make changes in your normal routine periodically, the birthday freebies mentioned above might change without notice. Businesses change things up to get more people to join their birthday clubs by offering products you want to use.
Do Grocery Stores Have Birthday Clubs?
Your favorite grocery store might also have a birthday club that lets your children get a free treat. The grocery store might also send you free coupons and product samples as well.
The Takeaway
There are more ways to get free stuff on your birthday than you can imagine. While this list primarily focuses on national retailers and restaurants, your local mom-and-pop businesses might offer birthday freebies too.

It would be nice if you could lower the font so people don’t have to SCROLL forever! Also, its “quite” not “quiet.” Spell check can only do so much.
I think the reason why you had to scroll forever is because there are over 160 different birthday freebies. We could maybe fit them in at a font size of 2pt, but that wouldn’t help much either 🙂 And, thank-you for the spell check! We fixed it?
This is super helpful. Had a blast on my bday adventure thanks to this list!
Thank you so much for all the info. My birthday is tomorrow so this is super helpful. 🙂
Happy birthday!
Thank you very much! This made my birthday even more special than it already is. 🙂
I LOVE how many of these I AM already a member of but never send me anything
I’m sorry you have signed up and not received anything. If you haven’t done so already, you could always contact them about it.
I thought I wasn’t getting any of these either, but a couple years ago, I discovered that a lot of them were going into my Spam box and several into my “promo” folder on Gmail. It turns out, I actually get a slew of awesome offers around the beginning of my birthday month and I use them throughout the month!
I’ve had that happen before too! It’s good to check that folder occasionally to make sure you are getting the emails you want to get.
