My birthday is rapidly approaching. On August 19th, I will be 21... (cough cough +6.) While getting older hasn't been all that big of a hoot since I hit my early twenties, I do quite enjoy the perks stores and restaurants give you for your birthday! I like free, don't you? Here are some places that give you free swag that I've come across:
Sephora sends you a coupon for a birthday gift when you sign up for their Beauty Insider club
(no purchase necessary in store, with purchase online)
This years gift is a 6oz bottle of Happy Birthday, Beautiful! shampoo/bubble bath/body wash
Baskin Robbins sends you a coupon for free ice cream 5 days before your birthday if you sign up for their Birthday club!
I will just have to make a decision between mint chocolate chip & praline pecan!
If you sign up for Aveda's B-day program, you will receive a coupon for a free gift valued up to $24
Yay for free products!
But wait, I just learned about a company that offers a free beauty service on your birthday! Sweet!
Benefit is offering anyone who shows a valid ID on their birthday a free brow consultation and grooming!
Just look for the pink Benefit counter in your local makeup counter filled department store.
Ya' think I can manage to hit all of these places on my birthday? haha :)
