Celebrate your birthday with free stuff. This list of 40+ Birthday Freebies & Deals is filled with free coffee, sandwiches, cake, and more.
Make this the best birthday yet with help from our other birthday posts.
Today is my birthday, which means I’m actually off so I can collect all my free birthday stuff.
But every year during my birthday month, I go through all the individual birthday freebies and update this post so our list of free stuff for your big day is as up to date as possible.
These are either all offers I received this month for my birthday or ones I could verify at the brand’s website. If there were generic offers on the website, or if I didn’t receive the offer this year, I didn’t post it.
If you received others and can forward me the information, I’ll be sure to add it to this list.
Also, keep in mind these offers are subject to change at any time, and Drugstore Divas has no affiliation with any of them, so be sure to check before you head out for them.
Your birthday isn’t the only day you can get fun free food offers throughout the year. You also can on a bunch of National Days throughout the year. Don’t miss a special day.
Instead, use our list of the Top 20+ National Days For Freebies And Deals to mark your calendar for deals like a free pretzel (on National Pretzel Day), free coffee (on National Coffee Day), Talk Like A Pirate Day, and more.
Birthday Freebies & Deals
Affiliate links are included in this post and Drugstore Divas may make a small commission if you use them.
I’m including free treats, free money to spend at stores, free with purchase offers (even though those are not my favorite), and discounts that are offered for your birthday (because I wanted this list to feel as complete as possible).
For some of these you need to be a part of the loyalty program, so I noted that as well.
