QDOBA Mexican Eats is Running Diptember in September

— September 2, 2025 — Marketing
QDOBA Mexican Eats is initiating a twelve-day promotional event — dubbed 'Diptember.' Scheduled to run from September 9th to September 20th, this marketing tactic is intended to coincide with National Guacamole Day and National Queso Day.

The Diptember campaign is exclusively targeted at members of the QDOBA Rewards loyalty program, who will gain the opportunity to win prizes and access special offers during the run-time of this promotion. In order to participate, one must purchase chips and a dip at QDOBA Mexican Eats. This serves as an entry into a sweepstakes featuring over 700 prizes. These prizes range from practical items like a year's supply of complimentary chips and dip, themed apparel, and customized footwear, to even more extravagant rewards such as a high-value whirlpool tub. Additionally, the Diptember event includes a day where members can earn double loyalty points and specific days where a free chips and dip offering is available with the purchase of an entrée.
