Guess what! Madison Minutes is celebrating its third (?!?!) birthday this month and to celebrate, we’re dishing on deals because who doesn’t love free stuff?

When your special day comes around, here’s where you can cash in your birthday bucks for some freebies in Madison.

The Nitty Gritty

This local bar literally describes itself as the “official birthday place” of Madison. But what exactly do you get when you spend your big night at the Nitty? The bar offers a bottomless birthday mug (complete with a balloon) that is your ticket to free cocktails, beers, and soda all night long.

Flix Brewhouse

When you become a member of the theater’s loyalty program, you’ll get a free dessert on your birthday. Yummy!

Culver’s

Once again, you’ll need to join a membership program for this perk but Wisconsin’s favorite fast food chain offers a free 1-scoop dish with one topping for your birthday. We’ll take one vanilla with sprinkles, please.

Comedy Club

You’ll get free admission within the week of your birthday and a Comedy Club mug with complimentary tickets for a future show.

National Deals

Of course, many national retailers and restaurants also offer birthday perks to customers. Local blogger Madtown Momma rounded a bunch of those up here.

How do you celebrate birthdays Madison? Let us know!

Keep the party going 🥳
