I’m a bit of a deal hound and one of my favorite deal times of the year is my birthday. It seems just about any retailer or restaurant with an email club will send you free or heavily discounted coupons. I discovered most of these birthday deals while I was a poor college student but even now, my inbox is still flooded every November (my birthday is the 15th if you were wondering) with coupons. How can I say no to free? I thought I’d compile a list of some of the birthday deals I get every year so you too can be bombarded with freebies. A lot of these are national chains but I’ve thrown in a few Kalamazoo favorites too. Most are emailed to you but a few are just show up kind of deals. Follow the links to sign up.
