Happy Birthday!
Wishing my readers a “Happy Birthday!” this month. When you celebrate with freebies, the celebration extends all year long and you need to be signing-up for new freebies well in advance of your birthday. Did you know you can quickly get to each month’s list by clicking on “Birthdays” in my top menu bar? My list is growing so I’ve started organizing the freebies by category.
My favorite birthday freebie this month is free Sephora Vanilla Cupcake Bath & Shower Bubbles that you will get when signing-up for their eNews. I’ve got a long time to wait for my own birthday – so if your birthday is coming up soon let me know if you are able to get this one! Sounds like the perfect pampering treat for Mom!
Get your frugal birthday tips from Frugal in Virginia about Saving Money on Birthday Cakes. She’s got tons of great tips and has posted the beautiful butterfly cake that she made for her daughter’s first birthday. Speaking of making cakes, you might want to revisit Green Mama’s tips for cake making – making cakes is her part-time business! If cupcakes are more your style, then MomAdvice has tested and recommends these Best Birthday Cupcakes in the World.
Moms Need to Know also shares her ideas about Birthday Parties on the Cheap, a great way to get some new ideas for planning your next kids birthday party.
Browse the list again for the new birthday freebies, you’ll find them in bold text. For the “no sign-up” birthday freebies I recommend calling your local store/restaurant to confirm they participate in these birthday promotions.

What freebies are you getting for birthdays in your family? I’d love to hear your comments to help me keep this list updated each month!
Happy Birthday to all the celebrants and may more blessings come your ways :) It’s great that these moms’ birthdays are celebrated, as this is a once in a year occasion.
Sign up for Del Taco’s Raving Fan eClub for free. On your birthday they’ll send you an e-mail coupon for a free premium milkshake.
I signed up for Sephora and got an e-mail that I can get the Vanilla Cupcake Bath and Body bubbles free with an on-line purchase. Or, get it for free, no purchase necessary, if I just go to the store. Now I need to check the local paper to find out when our store is suppose to open. Soon, I hope!
First Watch Cafe gives you a free entree for your birthday if you are part of their newsletter group. http://www.firstwatch.com/suneclub.cgiWhen you first sign up you also get a free entree.
I got the Sephora body wash too! It was easy to get and smells great! Everything else in the store is too expensive for me so this was a wonderful freebie :)
Yep, got the Sephora birthday gift last week. It smells so good and not at all a hassle…here’s my blog post about it: http://savinginsacramento.blogspot.com/2008/08/are-you-sephora-beauty-insider.html
