This year I decided to take my birthday into my own hands and make it a fun one for myself! I wanted to post this for anyone interested in some 2025 birthday freebies ????????????

If you’re up for a frenzy as well, I highly recommend signing up to all of these places AT LEAST A MONTH in advance as it just makes it easier and ensures you’re getting all of the goodies.

I’m going to list the company and offered deals, then afterwards I’ll explain how I maxed a few out. I spent two separate days picking these (pictured) up, and still ended up with about 4 places I skipped + 2 things that are being shipped. I decided not to do restaurants that required buying an entree to get the reward.

• Victoria’s Secret 10$ added to account

• Hot Topic 5$ added to account

• Taco Bell gave me a beefy 5 layer burrito for signing up, and I also have been offered 2-5pm strawberry freeze regular size drinks daily for 1$

• Red Lobster free dessert no purchase necessary! I did curbside pick up

• 20% off Bealls purchase (didn’t use)

• ULTA beauty or skincare gift (depends on store availability)

• McDonald’s 1500 points towards purchase

• Auntie Anne’s have had an account forever but didn’t receive anything

• Moes (I signed in to see I have enough points for taco) but I don’t think I received anything as it may have been earned from going there over the years?

• Papa John’s was also in my list because I heard there was a free dessert, but I didn’t receive anything.

• Publix gave me a surprisingly big BAR Cake (or ice cream, but I opted for red velvet cake)

• WAWA free any sized slurpee, fountain drink or HOT coffee

• Einstein bagel egg sandwich w purchase. I did do this one and got a fruity pop so I paid $1 + tax

• Ritas italian ice free small Italian ice (choice of flavors)

• Red Robin does something but I don’t have one around

• Panera free sweet treat

I was too late for IHOP pancake stack and some others.

Hot topic goodies are being shipped to store, I got 3 items during a BIG sale on their site because clearance and other sale offers or coupons were stackable! I did the same for Victoria’s Secret by getting something online that was heavily on sale and picked up in store (big bottle of bombshell for $2 of my own money + the $10 credit when it was originally 25 I believe. Many places offer welcome freebies as well for signing up or getting their app which was a nice surprise.

I did find a lot of places that weren’t local to me with freebies that I didn’t list, but for anyone who has more and wants to list them in the comments to also help others pls feel free! Wishing you all a fun and happy Birthday!????
