A FREE dessert is easier to find when you sign up for restaurant and bakery rewards before your birthday. Some programs offer a birthday treat, while others give you a sweet item with a purchase or let you redeem points for one.

How to make the most of dessert rewards
Sign up a few weeks before your birthday, enter your birth date and check your email or app for the reward. Before making a trip, look at its expiration date, purchase requirement and participating locations. If you visit a favorite restaurant often, check whether your points can also buy dessert: Black Angus, for example, lists a FREE dessert reward at 500 Prime Club points. (blackangus.com)
