National Taco Day officially fell on October 4 but Taco Bell decided to take matters into its own hands this year.
Rather than having National Taco Day fall on a Thursday, Taco Bell had it change to fall on October 1, making it National Taco Day on Taco Tuesday. I don't know about you, but that's a level of commitment that I'm here for.
However, Taco Bell didn't stop with the fun there. In the press release shared via Taco Bell's website: "Taco Bell kicks off a month-long celebration every Tuesday in October, starting with one of its biggest Tuesday Drops yet on National Taco Day — $1 tacos for 10 hours, on one of the biggest taco holidays of the year, and the best day of the week for tacos." As you can see, TB is bringing out the big guns on National Taco Day.
In honor of the holiday, the brand is giving away $1 tacos from 10 am to 7 pm and TB made sure to note that there is no limit: "Taco lovers can enjoy up to 10 tacos throughout the day for a total of $10 if they get in on each drop." The good news is that Taco Bell isn't just dropping crunchy tacos for the entire day.
Taco Bell planned an epic month of deals for October!
As mentioned, Taco Bell is dropping a different type of taco every single hour so you have the chance to get 10 tacos for $10.00 if you're one of the 10,000 who snag the reward. At 10 am, you can get a Crunchy Taco while at 11 am is the Double Stacked Taco, and at 12 pm, you have the chance for a Chalupa Supreme. Then at 1 pm, it's the Nacho Cheese Doritos Locos Taco while 2 pm has the Cantina Crispy Taco and 3 pm follows it up with the Cantina Chicken Soft Taco.
Moving further into the afternoon, 4 pm gives you the Soft Taco Supreme while 5 pm gives you the dinner of champions: a Cheesy Gordita Crunch. Finally at 6 pm is the Crunchy Taco Supreme and lastly at 7 pm is the Soft Taco. If you're one of the 10,000 people who redeem the reward, you'll be able to enjoy all of those tacos in just one day for $10.00.
On October 8, Taco Bell is giving away a chance to visit the brand's Test Kitchen as a VIP. This is dropping at 2 pm PST and will allow you and your plus-one to see a behind-the-scenes look at what TB has cooked up. As shared via the press release: "The VIP headquarters visit will include a private tour, a trip to the on-site Taco Bell restaurant, and a confidential tasting experience at the top-secret Taco Bell Test Kitchen." It sounds like an amazing experience for whoever is able to snag it and it also includes a travel voucher from Taco Bell for your travel and accommodations.
Moving right along to October 15, Taco Bell is celebrating allowing other businesses to use Taco Tuesday without fear of legal repercussions. Due to that, they're giving back to all of us with the chance to win: "To mark the special anniversary, Taco Bell is offering 500 Rewards Members a one-year taco deal where they will get a free Taco Bell Soft or Crunchy Taco reward in their app every Taco Tuesday for a year." Sounds like a pretty amazing deal for those who love a good Taco Tuesday moment.
On October 22, Taco Bell is making sure fans get what they want for as little as possible with its "Pick Your $1 Fave" promotion. 50,000 Rewards Members have the chance to get one of Taco Bell's items for just $1.00 and there is a choice of 8. As shared via the brand, the items are as follows: "Cheesy Gordita Crunch, Cantina Chicken Soft Taco, Cheese Quesadilla, Burrito Supreme, Beefy 5 Layer Burrito, Regular Nacho Fries, DLT Supreme, and Chalupa." Once again, Taco Bell is giving back in a big way to Reward Members which is just so darn cool.
Last but certainly not least on October 29, Taco Bell is serving up some exclusive merch to those who are long-time fans. As you might guess, the brand described it best: "To close out the month-long celebration of National Taco Day’s new, forever date, Taco Bell is giving away 500 hoodie and cup bundles with unique designs that capture the brand’s aesthetic throughout the years, exclusively for Rewards Members. The merch drop will feature five different sets of various designs that are uniquely Taco Bell." Whether you're a Taco Bell newbie or have loved it since you were a kid, you'll be able to have that little piece of Taco Bell with you wherever you go.
All in all, Taco Bell's month of deals in October is downright epic. If you're not a Taco Bell Rewards member, it's best to sign up as soon as possible. Plus new Rewards members usually get a perk with this and this time, it's "New rewards added! Join Taco Bell Rewards to get a free NEW Cantina Chicken Crispy Taco, Beefy 5-Layer Burrito, or Soft Taco." Getting something free and some Taco Bell at a cheaper price is definitely a good perk to help celebrate National Taco Day this year.
