THERE are more birthdays this month than any other, so if you’re celebrating yours, make sure you grab all the freebies you can get.
Even if you’re not a September baby, this is a timely reminder to sign up to loyalty schemes and download rewards apps.
Sign up to loyalty schemes and download rewards apps for birthday freebies
You’ll thank me when your big day nears and all the treats start rolling in, from free cakes to cocktails . . .
DOUGHNUT MISS THIS: Download the Greggs app and register for its Rewards scheme and you’ll get a voucher for a free cupcake, cream cake or doughnut to claim within the month following your birthday.
The Lidl Plus app will also give you a free birthday doughnut.
CUT COSTA CAKE: With the Costa Coffee app you can sign up for a Costa Club account, or log in if you already have one.
Then around your birthday you’ll be emailed a voucher for a cake of your choice to claim within seven days.
Fancy a Muffin Break? Pick up a rewards card if there’s a branch of the coffee shop chain near you and register to get your free birthday treat.
MAKE A MEAL OF IT: Lots of restaurants offer a free main course on your birthday when you eat with someone else who pays for theirs.
Sign up to the email newsletters of Zizzi, Cafe Rouge, Las Iguanas and others well ahead of your celebration to make sure you don’t miss out.
Beefeater and Brewers Fayre offer the same when you register a loyalty card.
BIRTHDAY CHEERS: Sign up to the All Bar One loyalty scheme via its app for a free Blossom Birdcage sharing cocktail on your birthday, or a number of alternative drinks when you buy two mains.
Gather your pals and get up to six free cocktails or mocktails at Fridays when you each buy mains.
You’ll need to download its rewards app more than a week beforehand.
