Your birthday only comes once a year, and oh boy is that the best time to cash in on those once a year rewards! So many brands, stores and restaurants offer you some type of incentive for you to celebrate with them. From the brand’s point of view it’s a great way to engage and make their customer feel special on their special day. From our perspective, the customer, we want to soak up all the freebies we can! Here we highlight our top three birthday rewards.
Sephora
Sephora gets the crown for having one of the best rewards program. For every dollar you spend you get one Beauty Insider point. You can cash your points in for different tiers of items such as two-in-one facial cleanser from Estee, or Laura Mercier pink lip gloss, or Drybar hairy hydrating texture, just to name a few.
For your birthday you get one free item. The items are always in rotation, but this April all birthday gals (or pals) will get a choice between a mini set from Fresh or Marc Jacobs Beauty (I think I am picking the Marc Jacobs).
Benihanna
As they say at Benihana, “it’s not just a meal, it’s an experience”, and trust me, they have the experience part down. Birthday goers of all ages can receive a birthday reward for $30 off, let me repeat THIRTY DOLLARS OFF, any dining experience in combination with a full priced adult meal.
The experience at Benihana is as exciting for adults, as it is for kids. So grab your best friends, and have a fun dining experience at the closest and coolest Hibachi restaurant near you.

Starbucks
As a long time gold member, I was a bit worried when Starbucks announced their new rewards program. However, I was happy to find out that the new program still included your FREE birthday treat. The treat can be ANY drink, ANY size, and normally lasts the entire month of your birthday.
