Birthday freebies: Bagels, burritos, subs, coffee, doughnuts

Did you know that you can score tons of great freebies including free meals during the month of your birthday?

If you have a birthday this month, make sure you sign up now to be eligible for many of these offers. Sign up as soon as possible because some freebies require that you sign up a certain period of time before your birthday (like a week or month before) in order to get the offer for that year. And remember that not all locations are participating so you may want to call ahead to verify before you head to the store.

I also love that many of the offers are valid for a week to a month so we have plenty of time to redeem them before they expire.
