My oldest sons birthday is coming up in just a few weeks and the excitement is mounting. With any little kid, he has been talking about his birthdays for about 6 months now, which would be about the time we were celebrating my youngest birthday. Today was my youngest half-birthday and I received a couple of emails that got me thinking. Did you know that there are dozens of freebies you can recieve on your birthday? And did you know that there are half birthday freebies to be had as well? If you have a favorite restaurant or store be sure to ask if they have a birthday club. It may include a free gift or coupon. You can check out Heyitsfree.net for an extensive list of stores and restaurants that have birthday club for both kids and adults.
