Chipotle has been under fire of late for several recent e.coli outbreaks, but it’s trying to make it up to customers.
Monday, the chain live tweeted its company meeting in a bid to be more transparent, though that decision meant more than 2,000 of the store's restaurants were closed from until 3 p.m.
To make up for the closures and all the recent food poisoning drama, the chain is giving customers the opportunity to snag a free burrito by texting the word “raincheck” to 888-222 (if you think it’s a scam to get your personal information, don’t worry too much — all they ask you for in exchange is your name and zip code) until 6 p.m. today.
You’ll get a text message back for a free burrito within the next few days.
If the move wins back the hearts — and stomachs — of customers remains to be seen, but we’ve never met a freebie we didn’t like.
