Favorite Birthday Freebies

Since I just celebrated my birthday recently, I wanted to share some of my favorite birthday freebies from popular brands and retailers. There's so many I never get to redeeming all of them!

• As part of the Sephora Beauty Insider loyalty program, you get a free gift which changes every year. This year there are three mini set options to choose from: Caudalie, containing a Vinosource Moisturizing Sorbet (10mL) and Vinoperfect Radiance Serum (10mL) for brightening and hydrating or Tarte, with Tarteist Creamy Matte Lip Paint in Birthday Suit (1mL) and Amazonian Clay 12-Hour Blush in Paarty (1.5g) for a coordinated lip and cheek twosome, or the cleansing and moisturizing duo from Jack Black - Clean Break Oil-Free Moisturizer (30mL) and Deep Dive Glycolic Facial Cleanser (30mL). 

• Godiva Chocolate Rewards members get $10 off toward their purchase during their birthday. My favorite from Godiva, the Nut Lovers Truffle Flight.
• AMC Stubs Insiders receive a free large popcorn while AMC Stubs Premiere members receive a free large popcorn and large fountain drink for their birthday.
• CVS ExtraCare Beauty Club members receive $3 in CVS ExtraBucks for their birthday.
• For your birthday, Baskin Robbins emails a coupon for a free scoop (2.5 oz) or one 3 oz soft serve swirl.
• To wish you a happy birthday, Friendly's emails out a coupon for a free medium sundae
• Cinnabon emails a birthday coupon for a free iced coffee. 
• My Starbucks Rewards members receive a free drink for their birthday. 
• DSW will give you $5 towards your purchase for your birthday, or $10 if you are a Rewards Premiere member.
• P.F. Chang's offers a complimentary appetizer or dessert of your choice during your birthday month, and is automatically redeemed on your next visit. 

• When you sign up for Sugarfina emails, you'll get an email to redeem a free small cube of your choice for your birthday, My favorite - Champagne Bubbles! 

• As an Aveda Pure Privilege member (with a one-time $10 enrollment fee), Aveda mails you a certificate in the mail you can redeem for a free composition oil. It may vary by store, but when I went to the Aveda Institute I was able to choose between Shampure, Beautifying or Aveda Men. I can't wait to try this product, although I miss the birthday gift when you received a Personal Blends™ Pure-Fume Spirit™, shower gel or lotion custom-blended with the aroma for your choice. I wish they didn't discontinue the Personal Blends line - I miss it!
