Caribous are intelligent, beautiful, majestic creatures! They heard my call! While this classic free birthday drink has been around forever, it was originally only a free medium drink. After some mild complaining on my part, they upgraded it to any drink, any size. However, as of 2022, you must make at least 1 purchase in the previous 6 months in order to qualify for this annual birthday offer.

It's cool they offer the same promo as soon as you sign up! So after you make a single purchase, you get both a free drink now and a free drink on your birthday. Not bad!

Full Birthday Freebies List!
🎂 Don't miss all the free stuff on your birthday available each year!

As we're in the midst of a hot and heavy freebie drought, I figured I'd dig around and attempt to find a new birthday freebie. And boy am I glad I did, as the Old Chicago birthday freebie is a whopping $17 towards the purchase of any pizza! Time to invest in 364 fake IDs because I'm about to go on an all-pizza diet with this offer.

[thanks to the Hiffers who tipped me off to this freebie!]


Free Gym Pass at 24 Hour Fitness

Free Gym Pass to 24 Hour Fitness 💪

Okay, Freebie Gods, very funny. I freely admit I plan on ingesting my weight in beer 🍺 and brats 🌭 on the Fourth of July. Even so, this free 3 day pass to 24 Hour Fitness is a little too on the nose.

I like the idea of 24 hour gyms though. I find the only time I feel like working out is when I'm delusionary drunk at 4am.


Free Movie Ticket

Two Free AMC Movie Tickets

I'm guessing this was real, since they pulled the signup form after we Hiffed it. If you signed up, I'd keep an eye out for the freebies.

Coke and Snapchat have teamed up to potentially give away two free AMC movie tickets. We're not sure when, but you should receive 2 free etickets in your email by 7/30/18. However, the confirmation page seems a little broken and the confirmation email makes this sound like a sweepstakes, so who knows. At the very least, it's worth giving them your freebie email address in the off chance that you'll get a free movie trip down the road!


Discounted eBay Gift Cards

Discounted Gift Cards via eBay

If you're hunting for last minute Mother's Day gifts, take off the camouflage and head over to eBay. Every week they have a ton of gift card deals available via PayPal. After purchasing a discounted gift card, they'll email you redemption code within 24 hours, so you don't have to worry about stuffing your wallet full of cards and ending up like George Costanza.

With this, you can make your next meal, trip, or purchase just a little bit cheaper!

These offers come and go pretty quick.


Costco vs Sams Club Free Samples

Comparing Costco and Sam’s Club Freebies

This article is freebie-adjacent, so I felt like sharing it here. Business Insider compared Costco and Sam's Club free samples and came away with a clear winner.

On paper, Sam's Club and Costco are almost identical – both are membership-based warehouse stores that offer customers discounted prices on products bought in bulk and other services such as eye and ear exams, a pharmacy, one-hour photo printing, and a food court.

We decided to put one of their best-known perks to the test: the free samples.

Both chains are known for their generous sample policy and customers frequently brag on Twitter about heading to the stores for a free meal.

There is a method to their madness, however. By offering free samples these stores improve the shopping experience for the customer and make them more loyal. It's also a way for customers to try new products and spur them into buying more.

“What started as a fun idea more than 30 years ago is now a core experience that our members love. Sharing samples is a great way to highlight cool, new items and showcase the quality and value offered by our curated assortment,” a spokesperson for Sam's Club told Business Insider.

Who do you think won?


Free Washington Post Subscription from Amazon Prime

Free Washington Post Subscription via Amazon Prime

It's no secret I'm a big fan of Amazon Prime. From unlimited photo storage to free streaming movies & shows to free eBooks that change every day – it's hard not to find a useful perk on top of the free 2-day shipping!

But did you know Amazon Prime members also get a free month's Washington Post digital subscription?

With the pace of news these days, it's nice having a legitimate source to turn to instead of relying on Facebook or Twitter or what your friends heard.

Your digital subscription gives you unlimited access to all WashingtonPost.com articles, plus access to all the news via any supported device like a smartphone, tablet, or laptop. Once you've started your free subscription, simply click the “Login with Amazon” button on The Washington Post and your access will be granted.

Remember to Cancel Your Free Washington Post Subscription

After the free month, you're given a Prime special offer where your monthly subscription is just $3.99 instead of the normal $9.99. However, it's super easy to cancel your subscription and not pay a dime too!

  1. Go to your Amazon Account page.
  2. Look under “Memberships and Subscriptions” and click “Other subscriptions” to load your Washington Post details.
  3. Follow the on-screen prompts to cancel your free subscription.

Free Subscription for Military and Government Members

While researching this post, I also discovered that members of the military and government employees also get a complimentary digital The Washington Post access! All you need to start a subscription is a valid .MIL or .GOV email address. Based on their FAQs, it looks like this is a permanent subscription!

All in all, not a bad offer for Amazon Prime members or government employees! Becoming an informed citizen and voter is even more important these day and it's nice to see The Washington Post making it slightly easier for many of us.

I'm happy to add the Back Yard Burgers birthday freebie to our crazy huge list of free stuff on your birthday! If a free dessert sounds tasty to you, then sign up today and grab one on your birthday.

On the other hand, if a free dessert sounds disgusting to you, then there's something wrong with you and we can never be friends. Sorry, I don't make the rules. I just enforce them and eat dessert.


Tax Day Freebies

2024 Tax Day Freebies and Deals

Ahh, glorious Income Tax Day is upon us with but a single day to spare. I've still yet to finish mine. I've only entered in my name and address on my Turbo Tax account, but the status bar still reads as 0% complete. That's not too encouraging if you ask me. I might just end up filing for an extension this morning. Hooray Democracy! At least I'm a few steps ahead of Homer Simpson.

While I toil away at figuring out which of my plants count as dependents (hey, they couldn't live without me!), enjoy this list of 2024 Tax Day freebies and deals! I should note, you may see other frugal sites reporting additional freebies, but I didn't include those. Everything below are offers with hard evidence for them online.

Unless otherwise noted, these freebies are available on Monday, April 15, 2024 only.

2024 Tax Day Freebies

File Your Taxes – Before we get to the fun stuff, you've filed your taxes, right?! If you haven't, you can file your free federal tax return in minutes with Turbo Tax or H&R Block. I'd start with getting that done before scoring any freebies from below 😀

More Freebies Coming Soon! They're usually announced in late March / early April.

As always, if you know about a freebie I missed, please share it with me and other Hiffers alike in the comments!


Free Swagbucks

Free Swagbucks Code

Chances are you found this site looking for free Swagbucks code. When I initially wrote this post in 2010, Swagbucks used to toss out free codes left and right. Then they went and got super popular! Now their free codes literally expire in under an hour and many times within minutes. However, I've been keeping this post updated with any bigger promotions that Swagbucks runs, such as…

October 2018 Free Swagbucks Promotion

If you earn 300 SB by December (which is super easy), you'll get a free $3 bonus!

All throughout October and November, you can earn large bonuses when you join Swagbucks. They're a rewards site where you earn points (called SB) for things you're probably doing online already, like searching, watching videos, discovering deals, and taking surveys. Then you take those points and exchange them for gift cards to places like Amazon, Starbucks, or PayPal cash.

When you sign up through me this month, you can earn a 300 SB bonus! Here's how:

  1. Sign up using this link
  2. Earn 300 SB total before December 1st, 2018. You'll get a 300 SB bonus for it!
  3. That's it! It's super easy, and Swagbucks is for real. I personally redeem an Amazon gift card from them once a year based completely on the free points I've earned.

If you've got no idea what I'm talking about when I saw Swagbucks, check out this review I wrote of them a while back. Long story short, it's like Google, but with prizes. Every search you make has the potential to earn points, which can be redeemed for cool stuff like gift cards.
