Birthday Freebies
I am a June baby and a typical Gemini (ask Mr FF!). But I love my birthday, it's halfway through the year and the weather is usually okay. Plus birthday freebies are a must!
There are so many you can get, here are just some that I picked up.
Boden - £10 voucher with no minium spend.
Boden send me a £10 voucher in the post each year and I picked up this gorgeous scarf for free, it was supposed to be £20 but was reduced to £10 and I did a click and collect for free too. The scarf is massive and is so soft! I got this be being on their mailing list.
WhiteStuff - £10 voucher with a £10.01+ spend.
With the WhiteStuff newsletter you get a a £10 voucher to spend, you have to spend over £10.00 to get the offer. I bought this candle and paid £2.50 for it. Again I did click and collect for free.
JD Williams and SimplyBe - Free Hotel Chocolate Birthday box worth £8.
The rewards and treats program at both are great, SimplyBe have recently changed their policy so you have to spend a certain amount to get the offers but the birthday offers seem to still apply even if you haven't bought anything. They will send you an email and all you need to do is log in and show the code in a Hotel Chocolate store. I went into to two different ones to collect each.
Hotel Chocolate - £5 voucher with the VIP Club.
You can pick up a VIP club card in any store, they will send to a £5 voucher to spend. I picked up a bottle of port (for my dad) and a lolly. These came to £6 so I paid £1 for them.
BodyShop - £5 voucher with their loyalty card.
Again another loyalty club to join, and you get £5 to spend. I picked up this gorgeous limited edition shower gel and paid nothing for it.
Hobbs - £20 voucher.
This is a great one to sign up to, just sign up to their newsletter and they will send you £20 to spend, your basket has to be over £20 so I opted for these socks. The trio was originally £20 reduced to £14 and the single pair were £6 reduced to £5, so I paid a grand total of £1. I again clicked and collected to store for free.
Paperchase - £5 voucher with their loyalty card.
Another card to pick up in store, they didn't email me this year but I asked when in store and the voucher was sitting on my card. I got this cute frog luggage tag for £1.50 (originally £6.50). I find their choice a little limited as it is quite expensive in there.
Hobbycraft - £5 voucher with their loyalty card.
Yet another card! With this one they also email a £5 voucher to you, I picked up some vinyl that was reduced from £8 to £5 so was free.
SpaceNK - Free birthday month goody bag.
This is a great one if you have a store near you, each month is a different bag to collect dependent on your birthday month and you get any email from their club to collect it. You can add it to you basket online but I think the delivery is quite high. Junes bag was full of three items; Dr Jackson's Everyday Oil (10ml) RRP £14, Briogeo Farewell Frizz (51ml) RRP £18.50 for 147ml so this worked out at about £6.42 for the sample I got and Becca Shimmering liquid highlighter (6ml) RRP £30 for 50ml so this worked out at £3.60 for the sample. These products are high end and the three items worked out at about £24 retail.
Shopmium - Free box of chocolates (cashback).
On the Shopmium app (this is a must app to have - download here [Shopmium] and get a free jar of Nutella!) you get a free box of Lindor chocolates which are worth about £4-4.50. They will pop up on your app near your birthday to claim, you need to buy them first and get the cashback within days.
Micheal Kors - £50 voucher (no longer being offered).
I signed up to their mailing list back in January, for your birthday they send a £50 voucher. Unfortunately, this went viral and people signed up using fake birthdays so they set a cut off point which I think was anyone who signed up before March. It's such a shame as it's a great offer. There was nothing I wanted so I ordered this t-shirt for Mr FF, worth £55 and I paid £5.
There are a few others, Boots give you double points for the month of your birthday and Superdrug give you quadruple points for the week before and after your birthday. Accessorize also give you a 20% off code with their treats card.
Debenhams Beauty club also offers either a free 15 minute file & paint from blow LTD or an oxygen blast from Arden. I didn't use this offer this year as they are only available at certain stores. Last year I got a free Benefit Brow Wax but this has been discontinued.
There are also lots of food freebies to claim, there were a few I was offered but unfortunately my jeans were saying no!
