Free Birthday Goodies!

Melissa (from church) told us Sunday that there was a website that had a list of free food and services you can get if it's your birthday. Sam checked it out and next thing I knew we had a Monday afternoon itinerary! For those of you in the Ann Arbor region, the site is on ArborWiki.org, specifically the URL is: http://arborwiki.org/city/Birthday_Deals.

First we hit up Bubble Island for some bubble tea. Though she tried a new flavor (Taro) that she didn't really like (I thought it was good), it cost us $0.00, so no complaints! They didn't even ID her to double check, and were pretty friendly about it!

Next, we parked downtown and booked it over to the world-famous Zingerman's Delicatessen. Sam picked out 6 bagels free of charge! If you know much about Zingerman's, you know they're expensive so it was a good deal to get 6 free. Again, they didn't even ask for her ID, and they were really nice about it.

We then walked over to Moosejaw on Main Street, where she received 50% off a Moosejaw T-shirt. The service was really friendly. One of the Moosejawers started telling us about the ArborWiki site and offered to print it out for us. We informed him that this was our third stop on our ArborWiki-fed free birthday feeding frenzy.

Our final stop was to meet Laina at Grizzly Peak for dinner, since we knew they had a great birthday deal. Sam got a free dessert, a free Grizzly Peak logo pint glass, and a $10 gift certificate! Although our service wasn't stellar this time, it all worked out. The food was as good as always.

Yum!
