Now, Jimmy Johns giving me a free sandwich that I have a month to claim and City BBQ giving me $5 off my next purchase... you guys are good.

As someone whose birthday is coming up this week: Preach!! I act like Bart in that episode of The Simpsons where he cashes in for everything from a shave to tango lessons. My birthday is a week long (or more) food celebration, especially while the pandemic is still going strong here in Texas - food is one of the few things I can enjoy. However, don't make me buy something to get my freebie. At most, I might do a B1G1 dessert. But I'm not going to like 50 different places to get 50 full price meals to get a free tiny dessert.

Also, Happy Birthday!
