Birthday Freebies - Need Your Help!

 

I just LOVE birthdays! Seriously, I know that some people start dreading them or at least generally not caring about birthdays at some point, but I LOVE birthdays. And, mine is just around the corner! I'm looking for a little help from my friends on this one, though. I know of only a few options in the Fargo Moorhead area for FREE things (like a free meal, dessert, coffee, etc) on your birthday. Now, I could call all kinds of places to ask, or I could just ask you all...

What birthday FREEBIES do you know about in our area?

If you know of something, any details you could provide in the comments would be great.  Thanks for your help!

PS - I am excited about a few freebies on my birthday, but actually I'm compiling a post for all of us for reference purposes.  So, this isn't entirely selfish in motive.  :)

  2. I started typing out where I got my free food at my last birthday, but instead I'll just post a link to my blog. I listed all the ones I got there. I'm interested to see what other ones you come up with!

  10. I heard once about the deal at the Speak Easy, but had forgotten!

    Also, I've eaten at the Holiday Inn Galley Restaurant before, and would recommend it as a nice alternative to the Paradiso/Mexican Village free b-day dinners. :)

    Wow, keep 'em coming!

  11. Green Mill - join their birthday club for free!
    You sign up and within a month of your birthday (I believe a month before or after), stop in to enjoy a free one topping pizza (I think size medium). This club also offers discounts off your lunches. YUMMY!
