Free guacamole for all.
Chipotle is marking National Avocado Day on Monday, July 31 by getting rid of the extra charge normally added for putting guacamole on your burrito, bowl or salad. Fans can also nab the free guac by adding it as a side to their order.
All you need to do is use the promo code AVO2023 at checkout in the Chipotle app or website. (It’s not good for in-restaurant orders or those purchased through third parties like Seamless). You need to be a Chipotle Rewards members to use the code — but it’s easy to sign up by Monday.
The side — made with avocados, cilantro, red onion, jalapeño, citrus juice and salt — can add nearly $4 to your order depending on your state.
