sheli Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 I searched and did not find this, If I'm wrong go easy on me! I went 2 days ago to order Emily's cake from the bakery at super walmart and when I asked them to write "Happy first birthday Emily" the girl says, "You know, since it's her 1st b-day you get a free cake for her." I didn't change my order, but the extra cake was a cute 4" round cake. They even decorated it to match the big cake. They charge a penny for this cake because they need to have a record of the sale, but they take a penny off the cost of the bigger cake.... Nice freebie if someone is celebrating a 1st b-day and lives near a super wm. Plus their cake was the cheapest around my area and didn't charge more for whipped cream frosting...

schwoozer Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 I think this is a fairly standard practice at several supermarkets. When our daughter turned 1, my wife heard about this sort of thing and started calling around. All 3 supermarkets we frequented had free cakes for first birthdays. Moral of the story: if this is something that interests you, definitely check with yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tinkerszs Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 Although we went in to Kings Soopers the week before Thanksgiving a few years ago to order ds's free cake. I got a call the evening before Thanksgiving telling me that they had made a mistake. The cake was only free if I bought a full sheet cake to go with it. I was ticked!!! It was the night before Thanksgiving and I had no cake. Luckily my dh threw a fit a they gave us the cake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy Mama Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 sounds like you do have to buy 1 cake and get the small one free. Not a bad deal though!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
