Get a fake ID for every day of the year. Say it's your birthday at Dennys and eat for free 4 life.

You may be thinking, surely a fake ID for every day is more expensive than a Dennys meal. That’s why you need to make the up front investment in getting the fake ID printing equipment. Now you’re making whatever you need and also have the groundwork for your own small business! That’s entrepreneurship!

Surely they'd catch on.. we'd need to factor in disguises!

Denny's hates this one trick.

say_ofcourseiwill@reddit

wouldn’t the logical conclusion to this just be that the charges you get for getting arrested for starting and running a full blown identity theft operation would surely be more expensive than just getting a separate one for every day of the year?

[-]

Urist_Bearclaw@reddit

My logic only goes as far as my joke. I hope nobody thinks I’m giving good advice here on this thread about committing felonies for free pancakes.

PintsOfGuinness_@reddit

And then you can just sell fake IDs and eat out better than Dennys

HughJorgens@reddit

Whoah! Slow down, I'm taking notes!

I met a guy who had one of those, in jail. He was headed to prison for 25 years

Bool_The_End@reddit

That’s why you don’t have one made, you just find someone’s ID who looks like you ;)

[-]

RefrigeratorHotHot@reddit

Shit it doesn’t even have to look like you if the person checking doesn’t care. I knew someone in high school (white male) who found the ID of an Asian woman on the ground, taped his picture to it, and would use it at the gas station right by the school to buy beer and cigarettes because the attendant just needed you to show anything.

[-]

Bool_The_End@reddit

Correct. lol I worked at a strip club many many many moons ago before I could legally drink, and we had like 3 shoeboxes full of IDs and credit cards left by people (cause !shock horror! people often don’t come back to get them). Anyway, I was 18 at the time and def picked a couple IDs that I mostly kinda resembled. :)

[-]

RefrigeratorHotHot@reddit

I used to just show places my real ID. A ton of them either didn’t notice or didn’t care that I was 16, and worst case they’d simply turn me away.

[-]

BulkyMonster@reddit

So he ate free for 25 years?

[-]

hullopalooza@reddit (OP)

We did it reddit!

Newagebarbie@reddit

I’ve never had a restaurant check my Id for my birthday. In fact whenever me and my bff go out to eat we always get a free birthday desert. I always ask in front of of the waiter “Do you wanna look at the dessert menu since it’s your birthday?” And the waiter is always like “we do free birthday desserts”.

[-]

Sl1z@reddit

Have you tried it at Denny’s though? They’re famous for the free birthday grand slam, and they do check your ID in my experience (especially if you’re not ordering anything else). Otherwise people like OP would just keep saying it’s their birthday everyday to eat for free

[-]

Newagebarbie@reddit

No I’ve only ate at Dennys less than 5 times in my life. There’s only IHOPs and waffle houses near me. But I could understand them checking IDs since they are giving out a full meal, and advertise it.

[-]

BeastyBaiter@reddit

The flaw with your idea is eating a Denny's. Nobody deserves such a fate.

[-]

cpclemens@reddit

Eeehhh it seems crazier to me that I need to point out that you don’t need one of for “every day of the year”. One of those days would be your legitimate birthday.

[-]

aclinejr@reddit

Didn’t Denny’s get rid of the ID based B-day Grand Slam? About 5 years ago they went to a reward account and force you to use an account. You just need an email for each day of the year, but not sure if that would work anymore since a lot of restaurants are starting to force purchases to gain the B-Day discounts. They do that at Red Robbin now and you must make a purchase throughout the year to gain access to your “free” burger.

Wet_Side_Down@reddit

Though it will be a shorter life for having eaten at Denny’s

[-]

Kristylane@reddit

Aren’t there only like three Denny’s left?

[-]

apathetic-taco@reddit

You don’t need a fake ID for this. You can just tell places it’s your birthday whenever you want. Usually you enter it when signing up for marketing emails and stuff.

Few years ago someone on Reddit made an excel spreadsheet of 365 restaurants offering free stuff on your birthday. Each place got a different birthday and they got free food every day of the year.

[-]

Groundbreaking_Bag8@reddit

This would only work if you were also able to travel far enough to go to a different Denny's every day, as otherwise the staff would recognize you and realize something's up.

[-]

testprimate@reddit

Just tell them that was your twin. Easy.

[-]

Ratayao@reddit

Won’t you have the same birthday?

[-]

testprimate@reddit

It was a very difficult labor and delivery, that's why my twin bro was here yesterday.

[-]

Vinst3r@reddit

Earlier this year, California Pizza Kitchen gave out a free entree reward for signing up to their rewards program. It was easy to sign up using the GMail "+" address feature. I signed up about 120 accounts. I had about 50 days to use them all. There were two locations close to me and two more further away. I ordered two entrees each day alternating the two closest locations. I would switch up to the two further locations a few times. Towards the end, the staff were recognizing me.

Ugh that sounds like a Supersize Me sequel

[-]

Vinst3r@reddit

They did have some pretty good salads.

[-]

UnreproducibleSpank@reddit

CPK actually does have a pretty solid kitchen and offer some relatively healthy options.

[-]

fearain@reddit

“Weren’t you here last Month?”

“No that was my identical twin brother. Different birthdays.”

[-]

Poverty_Shoes@reddit

You could probably get away with 15-20 different Denny’s daily for years with mixing up timing and appearance. If somebody recognizes you and calls you out, play dumb. This could work if there was anywhere in the world with that many Denny’s within a reasonable commute, but I doubt there is.

[-]

Sl1z@reddit

I guess it depends on what you consider to be “reasonable”

There are 19 Denny’s locations near where I live (within 1 hour commute)
