As a 7/11 baby, my kids used to think free slurpees were in honor of my birthday, but they finally figured things out LOL. I love all my birthday freebies and have a stack of free cone coupons that I'm currently going thru. Went to Rita's Ice and used a bogo coupon and my free birthday ice coupon - and shared a small feast with the kids.
In honor of my 41st birthday (holy cr@p I can't believe I'm so old) I'm doing another giveaway! I'm including this perfect neutral Rebecca Minkoff clutch that I picked up for a giveaway a couple sample sales ago (for just $20). I matched it up with a penny Butter London polish from the Rack and these super cute $3 sparkly winky earrings from the Yosca sample sale that are marked Banana Republic (they do product development for BR).
For some reason I never really get any birthday gifts (other than the ones I buy myself) so I'm also hoping my Karma will improve this year. It could be because most people know that I can buy whatever they are getting me for less, but that still does not let them off the hook. (Yes, dear husband, I'm talking to you...)
It was my Hebrew birthday yesterday and it's customary to give (and receive) blessings for your birthday. I'm going to wish all of us a year of amazing deals, penny finds galore, and lots of free stuff. Amen.
Good luck with the giveaway! Winner will be announced after my birthday!
XOXO

ReplyDeleteAw. I'm sorry. I know the feeling. Last year was 40 for me and no gifts or party :( My mom gave me the best advice - just buy your own gifts and you'll never be disappointed. Hopefully this year will be better for you!
DeleteI haven't had a birthday this year...yet...but I think the best gift will be having a new baby!
ReplyDeleteAwwww! Congrats.

DeleteMy birthday is not till November, but last year my husband got me a Kate Spade bag.
ReplyDeleteThat's pretty nice :) I don't think my husband has ever purchased a bag for me...
DeleteBarring any random goodies I get in a suitcase from my mom or sister, I buy my own birthday presents :-( Last birthday I bought a tablet to replace my nook that died. My neighbor did bring me 7 cookies for my 34 (3+4)th birthday.
ReplyDeleteHahaha. That's funny. I hear you about the random stuff. I have some family who does that to me too LOL.
DeleteMy favorite birthday gift was spending quality time with my husband. :) I could not have asked for anything better. :)
ReplyDeleteAww. so sweet.
DeleteI got a camilla bracelet for my birthday, and I love it!
ReplyDeleteYou're killing me. I still miss my now dead Chanel camellia cuff :(
