I have done a shockingly terrible job of redeeming birthday freebies this year, largely due to a lack of time.
And that’s how we know I truly am crazy busy. Ha. Me? Missing out on freebies? That’s unheard of.
1. I got my free Starbucks coffee
This one was an easy one to remember to redeem!
2. I got a free little cake
Nothing Bundt Cakes gives me a mini bundt in my birthday month. 🙂
3. I got a free cookie from Potbelly
Just over here collecting all the sugary freebies. Ha.
4. I got some socks from DSW and Kohl’s
They send me a $5 birthday reward each year, and I usually use it on some clearance socks.
I got three pairs from Kohl’s:
And a single pair from DSW’s clearance rack:
I have plenty of socks, so I will keep these in my drawer, untouched, to donate when my hospital unit does their winter a sock drive, to help people in our community. I will be prepared!
The Birkenstock socks are especially nice; they will definitely help to keep someone’s feet warm next winter. 🙂
5. I made it through a crunchy cantaloupe
I did let it sit on the counter for a nice long time in hopes that it would ripen, but unfortunately, it was still rather crunchy when I cut it open.
So, I adjusted my expectations and ate it anyway. 😉
Your turn! What frugal things have you been up to lately?
P.S. Thank you for the sweet birthday wishes yesterday! You are all so kind; thank you for cheering me on!
