Del Taco Re-Aligns The Stars in 2022 With Positive BOGO Vibes Every Time Mercury is in Retrograde
Fans can enjoy 20 Under $2 menu inspired zodiac readings and celestial social graphics
LAKE FOREST, Calif., Jan. 13, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- After recently announcing its all new 20 Under $2 value menu, (NASDAQ: TACO), the nation’s second largest Mexican quick service restaurant*, announces another stellar deal, this time with a celestial twist. Starting tomorrow through February 3, and repeating all four times when Mercury is in retrograde this year, members can enjoy a buy-one-get-one (BOGO) free Chicken Taco Del Carbon, regular or Guac’d Up**, from the new 20 under $2 value menu***.
Mercury in retrograde is the celestial optical illusion in which the planet Mercury appears to move backwards, and is often associated with misfortune, particularly in the matters of travel, communication and technology. Recognizing the positive and satisfying value of a good meal and deal no matter the circumstances, Del Taco is turning a perceived negative timeframe into a win/win with a limited BOGO deal that will run at participating Del Taco locations during the following periods of retrograde:
- January 14 through February 3
- May 10 through June 2
- September 9 through October 2
- December 29 through January 18, 2023
