How to get free stuff during the month of your birthday

Birthday freebies to get during the month of your birthdate

It’s my birthday month! And for me, this is my favorite time of year because I get freebies and deals from retailers for just being born during the month of October. I keep track of all the offers by bookmarking them in a folder in my email inbox. You’d be amazed at how happy this makes me. I look forward to this time of year. I make my rounds to my favorite retailers and brands throughout the month. From free food to free makeup to discounted clothing, you’ll be amazed at what’s available at little to no cost.

There are a lot of great deals available locally in Atlanta and nationally. I was surprised by how many restaurants and retailers celebrate your birthday. Who doesn’t love a good freebie on their birthday? Here’s a list of places where you can score a few birthday gifts.
