Enjoy birthday freebies and discounts with our Sun Savers tips
IS it your birthday soon? Don’t miss out on a range of freebies from retailers to help you celebrate.
Most of the time, all you need to do is sign up to a reward scheme or newsletter — you can then set up a dedicated “junk” email account.
Here are some of my top picks . . .
SWEET TREAT: Download the Krispy Kreme Rewards app to claim a free doughnut, the Greggs app for a cake or doughnut, the Lidl Plus app for a choc-chip cookie and the Costa Coffee Costa Club app for a cake. Shepherd Neame pubs and Frankie & Benny’s restaurants have birthday schemes which tell you how to claim a free meal when you buy at least one other main course.
SAVE: Free meals are usually worth at least £10
LOVELY BUBBLY: Sign up to Pizza Express’s newsletter for a free bottle of prosecco when you buy two main meals, All Bar One’s for a sharing cocktail when you buy two meals, and Miller & Carter’s for a bottle of champagne or prosecco when four or more people order mains. TGI Friday’s app offers you and up to five friends a cocktail, while Starbucks’ Reward programme gives Gold members a drink.
SAVE: Prosecco bottles are worth around £10
BEAUTY BOUNTY: The Body Shop’s Love Your Body club gives you a fiver to spend online or in store, no minimum spend. Space NK gives a freebie to loyalty members who made a purchase in the last year. It may be something like a brightening serum or oil cleanser.
SAVE: £5
DRESS FOR LESS: Sign up for H&M membership to get 25 per cent off one item using a unique code sent by email, while New Look gives you a birthday 20 per cent off for signing up to its newsletter.
SAVE: A £34.99 H&M puffer jacket with 25 per cent off is £26.25
GIFT YOUR SPIRITS: Hobby-craft and Paperchase will each give you £5 off with loyalty schemes, no minimum spend. The Entertainer gives you a birthday 20 per cent off when you register your kids with Jack’s Birthday Club.
SAVE: £5
