It’s my birthday month, so its time for my annual birthday freebie posting! I have some new favorites this year.
One tip of advice: Sign up for these birthday clubs at least 1-2 months before or after your birthday. Many of them will also email you special coupons on the anniversary of your account – so right now would be a great time to sign up (since you’ll get anniversary coupons near Valentine’s Day every year!)
10. La Borimex (Ephrata)
They will give you a FREE fried ice cream on your birthday. Be sure to bring your ID!
9. Shady Maple Smorgasboard (East Earl)
Get a FREE buffet if you visit with a paying adult. I had to include this on the list because it is a long-time tradition. We definitely don’t go every year, but when we can, we like to make it a special treat. We often go for breakfast, when it’s cheaper for the paying person. 🙂
8. Moe’s Southwest Grill (Reading, and Harrisburg)
You can get a FREE Moe’s entree (excludes fajitas) on your birthday with the purchase of a drink. On your anniversary you also get a BOGO entree coupon!
7. Noodles & Company
You’ll receive a FREE bowl of noodles. My favorite is Pad Thai. Yum!
6. Honey Baked Ham
This was a new one for me this year. They sent me a coupon for a FREE Honey Baked Ham Deli sandwich. I never tried this before, but it was delicious!!
5. Ruby Tuesday
This year I got a FREE burger (up to $9). I chose to pay a few cents more and upgrade to a pretzel burger. You can use this for take-out and the not be tempted to order more food or drinks, making it almost completely free!
4. Maggie Moo’s Ice Cream
I didn’t realize that the Lancaster location changed names, but they still accepted my FREE ice cream coupon. We tried the cookie monster ice cream (bright blue ice cream with cookie dough chunks in it). Yum!
3. Esbenshades Greenhouses
This is a nice change up from free food, an Esbenshades FREE plant. Mine was for a free primrose!
2. Dunkin Donuts / Baskin Robins
Get a FREE beverage and a FREE kids size ice cream.
1. Isaac’s Restaurant and Deli
Not only is this a wonderful local place for creative sandwiches, but they have my all-time favorite dessert on their menu! I use this coupon for any dessert for FREE every year, and I talk about it all year long too, just ask my husband! If you haven’t tried it, and especially if you are a cheesecake, brownie, and ice cream lover—you definitely have to sign up for this birthday freebie and get the Toucan Brownie Nest al-a-mode!
