Yet another post advocating for lying.

Or just use the discounts on your actual birthday and save it for people? I use my 20% off at bath and body works for a huge haul of things that I will give to others in my family, there’s plenty of discount codes given this time of year anyways.

The company has to know the real date of your birthday, you can't just fake it

"Lie to your employer about information they already possess"

What a "great" tip 🙄

I mean, they didn't say it's a company they work at

It’s not your employer. It’s for customer accounts and stuff. They have no need for my actual birthdate so I always give a fake one.

LPT: If a company asks for your birthday, give them a date during the holiday season. You usually will get good discounts which you can use for gifts.
