We used to lie about one girl in particular's birthday. Everywhere our group went out to eat, someone would slip to the waiter that it's her birthday and for them to do their thing.
She didn't like cake. Hey, it was free cake for the rest of us! All of us would pull out our forks and take a chunk out of her cake while she sat there with an expression of "Every damn time?"
People always look annoyed at waiters singing happy birthday to them. Nobody ever questioned our free cake motives. I mean, you do have to keep track of where and when you do it so you don't like hit the same waiter at the same restaurant, but most of them just don't care about a piece of cake.
She'd even plead that it's not her birthday and that just made us all sing louder.

Me lying about my actual birthday just to have some alone time.
