Woohoo, it's your birthday! Here's a list of over 200 freebies to help you celebrate!

If you're like me, you like free things. A lot.

And one of my very favorite things to get for free: travel. I've visited over 70 countries, most by using credit card points and miles for free flights and free hotel stays. Once I reach my destination, I seek out the best free activities it has to offer. There's freebies to be found every day, everywhere, but never as many as on your birthday.



No matter where in the world I am on my birthday, I am sure to take advantage of ALL the birthday freebies. If you love celebrating birthdays in a big (and free!) way, check out this mega list of things you can get for free on your special day every single year. Take advantage of as many as you can!

Birthday Goal: Instead of looking for freebies next year, you could be dining at the fanciest place in town! Set a goal to earn some extra cash this year - check out our favorite ways to make money on the side and treat yourself on your next birthday!
