[Sofa King Cheap]

http://www.chipotle.com/email/06-val-001/valentines.htm (contains annoying flash before it gets to the details of the deal)

Basically, it's close to a buy 1, get 1 free type of deal.

[Prepster]

Dam, thanks OP. This will come in handy a lot I bet.

[trytej]

I don't even know where a Chipotle is around here.

[shieryda]

That was some annoying Flash animation. Great coupon, though!:bouncy:

[sadunclesnugglez]

Man, I wish I had a Chipotle anywhere near me <cries>

[Over easy]

Hmm... Maybe it's time to go to a Chipotle. It's been awhile since I was there.

[dothog]

the flash hangs for me on the screen that says "This valentine's day..."

where's the coupon? is there a hidden link somewhere in the flash?

maybe the success of this is browser dependant. i'm using ff with adblock.

Yeah - I get the same thing using Internet Explorer.

IS THERE even such a coupon - I suspect this must be just a deal you get anytime you buy a gift-card, not needing a coupon but pls. if anyone could elaborate on this to set this correct.

I like Chipotle and I must get this deal if my gf should be lucky enough to get taken out to Chipotle for V-day :) hahah

You just need to buy the giftcard and keep the receipt for the gift card. Then I think you use the receipt for a free burrito between the days Feb 12-14. I'm thinking me and my bf will buy each other giftcards and get in on some free burrito action. Or forget the Vday theme and just get myself a free burrito :P

Judy - it's always nice to welcome a chick with low standards. More powah to ya.

Are Chipotle burritos any good? Thanks.

Are Chipotle burritos any good? Thanks.I like them. They're not authentic Mexican burritos or anything, but their ingredients are pretty fresh. I like hot & sour stuff, and they use this lime flavored-rice as their rice filling. Chipotle is almost identical to Qdoba, if you've ever had them.

I ate there once and was disappointed. Large burritos though.

I thourougly enjoy them. All 1300 or so calories.

I see. I clicked on the link thinking it would give me info when the title of this thread actually has what I need to know. So I just buy a gift card at one of their stores, then present the receipt between 12-14 Feb. Sounds good.

Their burritos are okay, but you have to make a point of asking them to tone down the rice. Every Chipotle I've been into LOADS you with rice unless you say otherwise.

Also, I dislike the fact that they charge $0.75 (may be more, haven't been there in a while) for guacamole. And their guacamole isn't even decent guacamole--it's the stuff that's half-potato, half-avocado. At least it tastes like it.

However, it's a good place if you're planning on skipping meals. I'm an experienced meal skipper, and I've gone full days on a Chipotle burrito alone. They're BIG.

I really like their guacamole (nothing potato-like in there... very avocado-y), but they charge whopping $1.40 extra. I love guacamole in my burritos, so it ends up being like a $7 burrito :cry:

GOR!

Prices have probably haven't gone up since my last visit--I'd imagine I'm just forgetting how expensive it is. The most likely scenario is that the pricing is so prohibitive the last time I can remember actually ordering guac, it only cost $0.75 extra (maybe 7 years ago?).

That is cruel and unusual pricing. One freaking avocado costs $0.99, and they put maybe 1/4 (at best) of an avocado into the serving of guacamole they dish out. They may need to feed the monkey, but this unchecked guacamole gouging will not stand.

[Dang]

Man I love Chipotle. I need to go get one soon. And one just opened up around my house. Sweet deal.
