17 Things You Can Get for Free on Your Birthday
I absolutely believe that birthdays should be celebrated in the grandest of ways and I have no doubt that feeling came from the way my mom approached birthdays when I was a kid.
Growing up, we didn't have much money, but our mom always did amazing things for us on our birthday. She literally found ways to make it a day to celebrate our life and when I think back to being a kid, celebrating birthdays is one of my favorite memories.
Whether or not you agree with the whole grand thing, you'll definitely agree that any time we can get something for free, it's a pretty awesome day! Here are 17 things that you and I can look forward to getting for free when our birthday rolls around.

Burger at Red Robin
Yum! This might just be my favorite birthday freebie! Until we got a Red Robin locally, my husband and I would often travel as far as an hour away to celebrate our birthdays with a free burger.
