A single taco isn't much at Chipotle. The taco meal that costs the same as a burrito is three tacos.
This hack hit it big enough that Chipotle stopped allowing people to order single tacos online, so if you want to do this you have to look the line worker in the face and do it.

Eta: I didn't have sound on originally, I thought his hack was the single taco with double meat (which is still cheaper than a burrito). But just a single taco in a bigger tortilla is pretty sad actually.

Hey I tested this out and it turns out they're right: ordering cheaper things and looking for any discounts or combo deals on the website does save money! Better get on this quick though, I'm sure the restaurants will be making some changes when they realise how they're being taken advantage of!

As a former (non-Starbucks) barista, :argh:

The biggest lies:

• that the staff just hands out cups for free,
• that Starbucks is where “real coffee aficionados” go,
• that gas cans are 0.2 gallons,
• that “the first 1.5 inches of [steamed] milk are free”,
• that there’s no upcharge for no/light ice,
• that a cup of concentrated tea will be delicious without being properly diluted, and
• that they haven’t had a thousand people try these and similar “hacks” so when you ask for your frap and two extra cups they won’t add extra ice or they’ll be just fine with you emptying the communal creamer over your dumbass coffee monstrosity in the wrong cup

Yes, I am care and real mad. Don’t put people through this when they get fired for unionizing.

Yeah also a former sbux and this poo poo would drive me crazy.

I would be the first person to give out a free meal if someone was homeless/forgot their wallet, etc. But the amount of smugness from the tiktok customers was just unbearable and I would follow the rules 100% out of pettiness.

Every single day I had a venti extra hot soy bone dry cappuccino split in to 2 cups from the most miserable person, and every day I would hand her the venti drink and an empty tall cup and brace for impact.

One day when I ordered my iced tea, the barista asked if I wanted water. I said no because I thought he was offering a separate cup of water? Turns out I like the concentrated tea way more, so this one is pretty legit for me.

There's a lot of deals at 7-11 that are technically one-per-customer but like, if you just keep ringing them up as new transactions the deal can be applied again and again. I know I'm not supposed to be doing this, but... well, like, in a legitimate case, suppose the customer bought a 2-for-1 deal, finished their transaction, but they decided they wanted two more? The system won't let me ring up two in one transaction without the discount being applied. Shrug!

Be nice to a service person and they will bend over backwards to give you whatever the hell you want. Be mean to them and they will follow the rules as strictly as possible while wishing for your slow and painful death.

If you're nice and there's a way to bend the rules to get you something, a lot of service people will do it. I've gotten employee discounts and compped drinks and coupons I didn't even know about just for having a nice conversation with someone who's having a bad day and has a few minutes to vent.

That said, don't force it; if there's a line, just GTFO.

Well I'm Finnish so I think everyone should be just decent enough to not be rude, all of the time. If they're not, how will you be able to tell the normal people from Christians, donation-seekers, perverts, and loonatics?

Pretty convenient cut to showing the perfect and plump finished burrito, especially considering the single taco didn't even fully fill the bowl before it was dumped.

Thats how our most dickheaded hen got decapitated, ran up to my grandad while he was lifting some patio slabs to scrat at the grubs underneath, then pecked my.grandad on the hand really hard. He recoiled and the slab slipped and landed on her neck. Rip Jet, you were a Vicious, egg eating git but you let me hold and pet you occasionally in between pecking peoples fingers.

drat, I love having chooks. They eat kitchen scraps and bugs to give me eggs. They make super fertilizing manure to toss in the compost and gardens. Stuff is better than any store-bought plant food. And they’re the cutest animal in the world.
