Chipotle Tries to Make Amends with September “Freebies”

After last years salmonella outbreaks and problems with other food-born illnesses, Chipotle is trying to make it up to their customers. Earlier this summer they announced the Chipotia Rewards Program that rewarded loyal customers with free entrees and drinks based on the numbers of burritos they purchased. This promotion is still going through September 30th and rumor has it they are thinking of instating a permanent rewards program in the future.
