It's Back! Chipotle's Legendary Boorito Haunts Halloween 2023 with $6 Entrees and a Shot at a Year of Free Burritos

Alright, listen up, fellow ghouls and goblins, because a beloved Halloween tradition is creeping back into our lives, and honestly, it's pretty fantastic. Chipotle — yes, that Chipotle — is bringing back its iconic 'Boorito' deal for Halloween 2023. And for its 23rd year, no less! You know the drill, don't you? It's the one day when showing up in costume gets you more than just admiring glances; it gets you seriously delicious, discounted food.

So, mark your calendars, or better yet, circle it in blood-red marker: Tuesday, October 31st, 2023. From 3 p.m. local time until closing, if you walk into a Chipotle decked out in your Halloween finest, you can snag any entrée for a mere six bucks. A whole burrito, a bowl, tacos – whatever your heart desires, just six dollars. It’s a classic, in-restaurant only kind of magic, really.

But wait, there's a little twist for those of us who prefer to, shall we say, social distance our spooky meals. If you're planning an online order or prefer the convenience of the Chipotle app, they've got you covered too. For a limited time on Halloween, you can also grab a $6 'Boorito' (or other entrées, of course) by using the rather fitting promo code 'BOORITO' at checkout. This particular digital treat is also available starting at 3 p.m. local time and runs until the restaurant shutters its doors for the night. So, whether you're trick-or-treating or just chilling at home, your discounted Chipotle is within reach.

And here's where it gets even more exciting, because, frankly, who doesn't want free Chipotle for a year? Ten lucky souls will win a $500 Chipotle gift card – that's essentially a year's worth of free burritos, depending on your appetite, you could say. How does one enter this glorious contest? It’s pretty simple, actually: just post a photo or even a video of yourself in your Halloween costume at a Chipotle restaurant on Instagram or TikTok on October 31st. Make sure to tag @Chipotle and, crucially, use the hashtag #BooritoContest. Oh, and you need to be 13 or older, a U.S. resident, and have a public profile. Just the usual social media contest rules, you know.

It’s a bit of a fun nod to the past, really. This whole Boorito tradition, in truth, was inspired by a rather viral 'How to eat a Burrito' video that made its rounds back in the day. A silly origin story for a genuinely great annual event. But beyond the delicious deals and the chance at free food, there’s a heartwarming element too. This year, Chipotle is committing to donate $250,000 in proceeds from the Boorito event to the Chipotle Cultivate Foundation. So, you're not just feeding your Halloween cravings; you're also helping to support a good cause. It's a win-win, truly. So go ahead, dust off that vampire cape or perfect your zombie makeup – your Chipotle awaits!
