Birthdays signify something different for everyone. For some, it’s a day of reflection. It can also mark a period of looking ahead, an acceptance of aging, or evoke just plain indifference. There are those who announce their birthday month and celebrate all four weeks. Others keep the date to themselves, and their community only finds out via Facebook. But no matter how you feel about celebrations and attention, one thing we can probably all agree on is that free items are always welcome. And while this isn’t a surprise party (sorry, would be tricky to coordinate), you’ll still definitely be WOWED by all of these incredible b-day deals! So close your eyes and make a wish—it just might come true in one (or 135!) of these birthday freebies, rewards, discounts and deals!
