I do not know if this is just a USA option with companies, but because it is my birthday Month I remembered all the free stuff I get. Yes, free stuff. How?
Restaurants or stores offer clubs to join for free. To keep my spam down, I have a dedicated an email address just for this type of information.
Sometimes it is 100% free, sometimes it is buy one get one free, sometimes it is a percentage off and then have a free small gift without purchase of anything.
For what I am signed up for, I could either get a discount or free meals for most of July. Personally I use only about 5 of them. These are not cheap places either, even though I must admit I do use the Arby's free chocolate shake with no purchase and free ice cream at Baskin Robbins. The ones I like is an all you can eat chicken dinner and a desert (valued at $27) and then free deluxe burger and fries and a place (valued at $13) and at a place for a free slab of ribs and 2 sides.
I usually use my 10% coupon at Bestbuy. There are so many free programs. Just remember to use a spam account and once I get an actual birthday gift, I create a rule in my email to send it to my birthday coupon folder and then I check the folder next year within my Month and then I cash in.
I have been doing this for about the last 15 years.
I would give you my list of important places to signup, but I do not know if these types of programs are international.

I really thought that companies international would want to do this to get people in the stores, etc.

That is why I did not post any company names. I did not know if this was an international topic.

My personal fave is the McDonald's BOGO Quarter Pounder with Cheese (or Egg McMuffin) if you do a survey (for your previous purchase) on McDVoice

Gee, I wish they had free stuff in Australia. I've never heard of any offers like you've detailed. Have a great birthday.

I love the freebies companies give for our birthdays! It is amazing!
My birthday month was last month and I got quite a lot of things too! I ended up not redeeming them all.
Some that I can remember off on the top of my head: Cupcake from a local cupcake spot ($3 value), Rubios (Free Entree $8 value), Red Robins (Free Burger - $14 value), Free gift at Sephora, Free $10 to shop at Victoria's Secret, Free $5 to DSW
