Yeah, you read that right - Qdoba® fans who share a spicy smooch at the register will receive a free entrée with the purchase of an entrée on Valentine’s Day. No coupon is required, so get creative with it and show your own personal flavor—kiss a picture of your favorite celebrity crush, your significant other, or even kiss yourself—it all counts!

“Last year, Qdoba inspired thousands of kisses and this year we’re aiming for even more love,” said David Craven, Qdoba Vice President of Brand Marketing. “Qdoba has really made a splash with our Valentine’s Day promotion to the point where guests anxiously await its return each year.”

And, what better way to round out your flavor-filled Valentine’s Day than a chance to win up to $500 (or some Qdoba gift cards)? “In 2016, we’re upping the ante by adding our Qdoba For A Kiss Sweepstakes, and we’ve got Vine stars helping us kick off this year’s promotion with a fun event in Los Angeles,” said Craven.

To enter the sweepstakes, guests can snap a photo of their kiss (it doesn’t need to be in the restaurant) and upload it to Instagram or Twitter with the hashtag #QdobaForAKissSweeps from Feb. 10-15 (must be at least 18 years old to participate). Winners will be selected at random from all eligible entries and contacted via Twitter/Instagram beginning Feb. 18. Visit www.Qdoba.com for complete rules and conditions.

Additionally, Qdoba fans in Los Angeles will get a chance to celebrate the Qdoba For A Kiss offer a day early. On Feb. 13 from 4:30 p.m. – 6:30 p.m., Vine stars Meghan McCarthy, Heath Hussar and Zane Hijazi will help kick off the Qdoba For A Kiss promotion at the Qdoba located at the Westfield Mall in Culver City (6000 Sepulveda Blvd., Suite 1591, Culver City, CA 90230). The Vine favorites will be available for selfies at the counter, helping fans get their own buy one, get one free entrée a day before the Valentine’s Day promotion officially starts.

The Qdoba For A Kiss Valentine’s Day offer is valid at participating locations, and guests can find their nearest Qdoba where they can share a kiss at Qdoba.com/locations.
