Birthday Gifts

Similar to free samples, but I thought I’d start a forum where we could have those awesome deals that you get for your birthday. I’ve been discovering some good ones so I thought I’d share them!

Beauty:
– Mecca: as most of you probably know, you get a free birthday gift and make up application around your birthday.
– Priceline: apparently do a $5 voucher, I don’t thi I’ve ever got one, but they do it apparently!

Clothing:
– Saba: $25 voucher to use in your birthday month.
– Witchery: $20 voucher for your birthday month.
– Bonds: $10 voucher for your birhday month.
– Lorna Jane: 25% off for the month of your birthday.

Food:
– Boost: free boost on your birthday or the two days either side.
– Gelatissimo: free gelato during your birthday month

Other:
– Kikki K: $10 voucher for your birthday month.
– Dymocks: $5 voucher to redeem.

I’ve probably missed heaps, so feel free to share any you come across, or correct mine if they’re wrong! I know you guys love freebies, so I thought a forum might be a good place to share these!

      Happy belated Birthday, miss _tamriel! There`s a cake on the birthday thread, here:
      http://www.beautyheaven.com.au/forums/anything-but-beauty/having-a-birthday-this-week-post-it-here-and-well-send-a-cheer?

      I picked up a Myer Click & Collect today, which was a birthday voucher purchase.

      I got a $25 voucher from Sheridan, so I bought a free towel.

      I sew, so I got $10 vouchers from Spotlight & Lincraft, but I haven`t used them yet.

      • 3 yrs, 6 mths ago

        Thank you so very much! I checked my emails and got the $25 voucher too so I will buy one towel lol, I worked near the DFO sheridan outlet which makes it easy free click & Collect.

      • 3 yrs, 6 mths ago

        I`d intended to use Click & Collect at my closest Sheridan, which is a couple of suburbs away, but they offered free postage, so I got it posted.

      miss_tamriel, I received two Mecca single use sheet masks for my level three box a few months ago and I was very disappointed. I haven`t used the masks because they have some reviews where people reacted to them. I`m not even going to put them in my charity bags (Share the Dignity) because I don`t want someone reacting to them.

      • 3 yrs, 6 mths ago

        I read that online too! I have so many cheap korean face masks that I know are better quality too that I have not yet used and don`t want to risk it either. I read that other level 2 beauty loop got a bday gift of a blush brush so I was hoping for that.

    • 3 yrs, 6 mths ago

      Happy belated birthday miss_tamriel!

      Some nice little goodies there! I`m surprised you only got 2 Mecca face masks, but that`s still a nice little present for you to celebrate your birthday.

      Looking forward to whether I get a $10 Myer for mine in a few weeks

    Im with priceline and never got anything for my birthday

    • 7 yrs, 2 mths ago

      Wendymick: if you go to the Priceline website & log in, there`s a drop-down box. Select “”My Points & Rewards””. If not too much time has passed since your birthday, you could phone or email them to tell them that you never get your birthday vouchers. I think another forumite had this problem a while ago & it was sorted out by Priceline. Good luck!

  • 7 yrs, 2 mths ago

    It’s my birthday on Friday! I can’t wait to get some of the freebies!! I will update everyone!

  • 7 yrs, 2 mths ago

    If you’re a Priceline sister club member they email you a voucher to use for your birthday. My birthday is this month so hoping to receive one again from them like I did last year.

    • 7 yrs, 2 mths ago

      Hayley644, the DATE of your birthday, please!!!!!!! Regular forumites aren`t having birthdays unless we can acknowledge them in the Birthday Thread so please????

      • 7 yrs, 2 mths ago

        January 26, I`m an Australia Day baby, the whole country gets a day off to help me celebrate my birthday!

      • 7 yrs, 2 mths ago

        Thanks, Hayley. What a nice way to spend your birthday – how considerate that you are happy to share your birthday and the day off with the Nation!!!!! You`ll have to celebrate all month!

  • 7 yrs, 2 mths ago

    I’ve loved the Priceline one!!

  • 7 yrs, 5 mths ago

    Priceline I got the 5 voucher this year! But I had never received it years prior so that’s weird and random.

    MARCS – I received a 20 voucher which was incredibly generous and the voucher was good for a month.

    Let me consult my emails for the others I received (my bday was in June so I know I received heaps of emails/vouchers) it was super hard to choose what to use.

    • 3 yrs, 7 mths ago

      It`s my birthday this month and Priceline just sent me a $10 voucher! The $ seems to have doubled now.

      • 3 yrs, 6 mths ago

        Interesting….it was my birthday yesterday & I received nothing, whereas I have in the past. Outside of birthdays, I never get emails from Priceline, but that may have to do with me not having an online account with them. Either that or my points system up until the last month was at the basic level. (I say that because I`ve spent a buttload of $ in there over the last month; the most I`ve spent in ages.)

      • 3 yrs, 6 mths ago

        Seashells: sometimes when I`m at Priceline buying something, the SA tells me I`ve got $5 on my card, without me even knowing it was there! Hopefully, you`ll get a similar surprise when you`re there next?

      • 3 yrs, 6 mths ago

        Been meaning to come in here & post a reply….went to Priceline late last week just to browse, discovered they had an Essano body wash I`ve used before (the Vanilla & Chia Seed one) on sale, went to the counter with it, handed over my card & lo & behold, there was my $5 birthday reward! Gladly used it, which meant that I only had to pay….wait for it….$1 for the body wash lol. Even the SA had a giggle at the total.

      • 3 yrs, 6 mths ago

        That`s good to hear, Seashells!

        The SA at Priceline had a giggle at me, too – I had to pay 39c!

      • 3 yrs, 6 mths ago

        I love those surprises!

      • 3 yrs, 6 mths ago

        misfortune8 The $5 on your card was most likely because you were one of the monthly lucky winners. Each month Priceline draw out lucky winners and if you use your card that month and you are one of the lucky ones you get $5.

      • 3 yrs, 6 mths ago

        I thought the monthly draws were a new thing? I`d assumed that the $5 was a quarterly reward.

      • 3 yrs, 6 mths ago

        The monthly draws are quite new misfortune8 I think they started back in June or July. My daughter was here at the time and i remember us both scanning our cards to see if we had won….we hadnt. If you look in your account online it should tell you if it was your quarterly reward from the end of June or if you were one of the lucky $5 winners.

      • 3 yrs, 6 mths ago

        Once again, Happy Birthday Seashells and I hope you had a fabulous and special day! I believe you should receive a $5 voucher for your birthday regardless of points, just for being a Sisterclub member. I receive emails from Priceline somewhat frequently, not just on my birthday. I have registered for on online account though. Perhaps you could visit in-store and see whether a $5 voucher has been loaded onto your account? When the club changed to Sisterclub many years ago my mum re-signed me up just providing my mobile number. I never received emails and from memory, I never knew that I had a $5 voucher (or any voucher for that matter) unless I went in-store where they told me. I would register an online account, go in-store or call head office to ensure they have all your details on file. As they only do digital vouchers now and no longer send correspondence by post along with you not registered for an online account, there might be $5 waiting for you to spend.

      • 3 yrs, 6 mths ago

        I only got $5, so it must be related to your membership level. I`ve had a lean quarter, so I`m only on the basic Sisterclub level (spend up to $149 per quarter). I`m 51 points short of Diamond level (Diamond = spend $150-$399 per quarter).

      • 3 yrs, 6 mths ago

        That`s interesting- that must be so, then.

        I love the Sisterclub and how you don`t have to fork out hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of $ to get rewarded. I look forward to my little rewards voucher each quarter and have loved receiving the Pink Diamond gift box those few times I have reached that tier. I feel it`s great value perhaps so in comparison to the Mecca Beauty Loop boxes (just from what I see online, I don`t spend anywhere near enough at Mecca) but the upside to Mecca is that you only spend a certain amount per year and get a goody box each quarter. Thank goodness Priceline is changing their Sisterclub to the same structure. Sounds like you`ll have plenty of time to up the voucher to $10 for next birthday as surely you`ll reach Pink Diamond 12 mos from now!

      • 3 yrs, 7 mths ago

        Lucky you. Its my bday month too and I got sent $5 dollar voucher from priceline.
        I wonder if there are based on levels /how much you spend at priceline.

      • 3 yrs, 6 mths ago

        What date is your birthday? I had always received a $5 voucher but this time was more and I just thought they upped it. It might have something to do with levels as I`m Pink Diamond this quarter (I`ve reached this level previously but it might not have been around my birthday). Some good new changes coming to the Sister Club this October- including keeping your tier for 12mos. Maybe next year you`ll get that $10 if you reach Pink Diamond between your birthday this year and next!

    • 7 yrs, 2 mths ago

      I got the Priceline voucher last year as well but never any of the years before! So strange.

  • 7 yrs, 6 mths ago

    Well it was just recently my birthday
    Optus gave me a $10 Priceline evoucher
    And Kora Organics gave me a $25 off my order for the September month 🙂
    Think that was all actually. Im signed up to a lot of sites too!
    Never had Priceline send me a voucher!

  • 7 yrs, 7 mths ago

    Thanks for sharing these, l didn’t know about any of them! I think Brunetti’s offer a free drink, well they did a few years ago. I love birthday offers.

  • 7 yrs, 7 mths ago

    I got the $5 priceline, I’ve also had it previous years. Katies send a $20 gift voucher to use in your birthday month.
