Apres-ski burrito

After a long day on the slopes, skiers and snowboarders need to re-energize with a big meal. What better way than with one of Chipotle’s big burritos? Here’s the deal. On Feb. 9 from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m., bring your 2014/15 ski pass to any Chipotle Colorado location. Purchase a burrito, order of tacos or salad, show your ski pass at the register and receive a second entrée for free. The ski pass must include a photo. Single-use lift tickets will not be accepted. chipotle.com

Coffee break

Stop by Chick-fil-A any day this month for caffeine and savings. The fast-food chain is giving customers a free cup of its new specialty-grade Thrive Farmers coffee all day long. (Remember, Chick-fil-A is closed on Sundays.) The offer includes either a small hot or medium iced coffee, while supplies last. Limit one cup per customer, per visit. No additional purchase is required. chickfila.com

Love on a budget

If you’re looking to tighten your budget, head to Starbucks for a special menu pairing. On Feb. 13, from 2 p.m. to closing, the cafes are offering a few select menu pairings for just $5 at participating locations. Choose from a Caffé Verona coffee press for two and double-chocolate chunk brownie; Tall Flat White and chocolate croissant; or Grande raspberry mocha or Grande white chocolate mocha and heart cookie. It could be a lovely way to start the Valentine’s Day weekend with someone special, without breaking the bank. starbucks.com

Get saucy

Share a smooch and Qdoba Mexican Grill will show you some love. Buy one of its new smothered burritos (Bold Red Chile, Smoky Chipotle Cream, Tangy Verde or Savory Queso) on Valentine’s Day. Then, perform a slightly cheesy task: Plant a kiss (it doesn’t have to be a full lip-lock — a peck on the cheek will do) on a significant other, family member, friend or willing stranger and they’ll give you a second smothered burrito for free. The lip-smacking promo is valid at all Colorado locations on Feb. 14. qdoba.com
