I love how the Panera Bread birthday freebie 1) offers the ability to “snack it forward” (™ pending) to a friend while 2) at the same time knowing tons of people would need clarification on “giving away” their dessert. As if somebody would give away a free birthday pastry.

  2. Panera food is laden with calories : O I think ppl who feel as though they’re doing their bodies good by going there for lunch/dinner…may be VERY SURPRISED- as I was!! I couldn’t believe it when my daughter went on her phone (some app….don’t ya know) and showed me. Yes, even the salads. I mean you’d expect it from the baked goodies but, the sandwiches/salads?? Seriously? Then the prices they charge for something you could easily make at home is OUTRAGEOUS to say the least. Do I still take the kids? Yes, once in a while….as a treat ONLY!!! Just a word to the wise…don’t be fooled in to thinking it’s low cal in any way/shape/form. Have a great day!!

  3. When I signed up, I was given a free pastry on my choice.
     
    For my birthday I also recieved a free pastry on my card,
     
    in between though , I got several free beverages, and even a free you pick two. When I asked my cashier how I earned that ( I don’t go very often) she told me it was random…

  4. I received my Panera reward last month- it was a free bakery item of my choosing. I went with the “Monkey-Bread”-like muffin. That 1,000 calorie monster filled me up for the entire day.

    •  @Halina Zakowicz The “Monkey-Bread” like muffin you’re referring to is the Cobblestone … I don’t eat the whole thing and I share it with someone else … that way the calories get shared around 🙂

  5. I just signed up for a card.  They issued a temp card that I printed & can take.  Under “My Surprises” on the site, it says I have a free Expresso or Smoothie.  Offer good until 8/7/12.

  6. All you have to do is log into your Panera Card account to see what it is.  Mine is good through July (which is three months).  🙂

  7. I activated my Panera card a month or two ago and it gives you a free “sweet” as well, which is automatically loaded onto your card!

  8. The “Birthday Freebie” is any cookie or sweet (brownies, etc.) that they have available when you come in.  Panera’s sweets are super good.  I got this freebie back in April and got a $1.49 chocolate chip cookie (which are made fresh that day).  It’s really whatever sweet you want. 🙂

  9. When I got my card(in store) they told me when activated online it would give me a free dessert. Haven’t done it yet, but I guess its the same all over the U.S. I don’t want to activate it til I know I am going there cuz I think it has to be redeemed within a certain period. (ie a month or whatever)
