Balloons, cake, and presents, oh my! Birthday celebrations offer opportunities for giggles, excitement, and anticipation.

To sweeten the birthday recipient’s experience, many businesses and organizations send their birthday wishes in the form of freebies and discounts.

During the month of April, I will begin sharing at least one birthday freebie or discount for food every day. Each post will highlight the organization, link to the website, and give any instructions for receiving your treat.

To receive a daily e-mail around 11:00 a.m. with the new posts of each day, subscribe to my free daily newsletter. In case you miss a post in our Birthday Freebies and Discounts series, I will provide the link to each day as the month progresses.

If you have received any of these freebies or discounts, then please share in the comments about your experiences as I love to learn from you. Now, let’s continue this birthday celebration!
