Getting things for free is always great. Every so often your favorite restaurants, donut shops or even retail locations give items or food away for free. Usually this is part of a more concentrated effort to get more foot traffic in the restaurant or store. Taco Bell is one of those companies that will give away free product to pull customers in. Today only (November 2) you can get free a Taco Bell Doritos Locos taco.
Why is There Free Taco Bell Today?
Taco Bell is giving away free Doritos Locos tacos today as a part of their “Steal a Base, Steal a Taco” campaign. As you may be aware, the World Series is taking place and millions of people are tuning in to watch America’s favorite pastime.

In Game 1 Indians shortstop Francisco Lindor came through and stole a base. It is being referred to as the “stolen base heard ’round the world.” The Taco Bell website says that the company believes one great steal deserves another (how clever!).
When Can You Get Free Taco Bell Today?
From 2 p.m. until 6 p.m. (your local time) you can get one free Doritos Locos taco at any participating Taco Bell location. There is no purchase necessary, however, each person is limited to one taco.
Taco Bell is a franchise so each Taco Bell location is privately-owned. Not all locations will be participating in the giveaway today. So, if you are curious as to whether your local Taco Bell will be giving away free tacos you may want to give them a call before heading over.
What Other Days Can You Get Free Taco Bell?
Today’s giveaway is to celebrate a new American hero, according to the Taco Bell site. However, you can get free Taco Bell more than just one day a year. In fact, the restaurant offers great deals and freebies throughout the entire year.
