META [META] Posting Guidelines 4.0

14 Upvotes

Welcome to r/RandomActsofTacoBell, because who doesn't love free tacos?

How does it work?

Using the Taco Bell mobile app or website, users are able to offer or receive free food. Please read all our subreddit guides and rules before posting or commenting.

NOTE: The giver must have the Taco Bell app installed on their mobile device OR access to the website.

Requests

How to request:

  • When making a post, title it starting with [REQUEST]. Although we love to make sure we're helping those in hard times get food, that doesn't have to be the case. If you've had a long day and don't have time to make a meal, feel free to request. Have bills to pay but could really use a Baja Blast? We understand, feel free to request.
  • When someone makes an offer under your post, follow their directions to receive your food. DO NOT SEND THE FIRST PM TO ANYONE WITHOUT BEING REQUESTED TO.
  • The gifter will need the following information from you:
  1. Full address of your preferred Taco Bell location
  2. Date and time you will be picking it up
  3. Preferred method of pick-up (in-store or drive thru)
  4. Contents of your order, if applicable (sometimes a gifter can only give so much. Remember any Taco Bell is better than no Taco Bell
  • Once the order has been placed:
  1. Pick-up your food at the agreed time and location.
  2. Be sure to use the name of the gifter, and not your own name.
  3. Edit your post flair to "Food Received" and/or edit post to saying the request has been fulfilled
  4. As Rule #4 states, make a thank-you post to your gifter. Start & flair your post with [THANKS].
  5. Enjoy your food!

How to fulfill a request:

When you see a [REQUEST] post and want to help the user who created it, comment under the post asking the user to PM you or offer to PM the user. With confirmation, message them what you can offer to them or ask what the user would like to be ordered. Gather information such as address of Taco Bell locations, date and time or pick up, and preferred method of pick-up.

Note: When you've placed the order, please edit your comment on OP's post saying you've placed an order for them as another verification the transaction has taken place.

Offers

How to Offer:

  • Feeling generous today? When making a post, title it starting with [OFFER]. Within your post state what you are offering, how many people you are offering it to, if there is a time range on when your offer will be good for, and any other information may be needed. You can set an offer up in any way, include contests. Do not ask for anything in return or ask any user to go off-sub/off-site.
  • When choosing the recipient(s) from the comment section, please reply to their comment before sending them a PM.
  • You will need the following information from the recipient(s):
  1. Full address of your preferred Taco Bell location
  2. Date and time for pick up
  3. Preferred method of pick-up (in-store or drive thru)
  4. Contents of order, unless you have laid out the contents already in your post. Check for modifications (i.e. vegetarian recipient may want beans instead of beef on items)
  • Once the order has been placed on the Taco Bell app or website:
  1. The recipient will need your first name for pick up as well as an order number just in case
  2. Edit your post flair to "Offer Collected" and/or edit post to saying who the offer has been given out to
  3. Pat yourself on the back for being awesome

Note: You may also offer Taco Bell e-gift cards which will require you to gather the recipients preferred email

REQUEST Request Meal for 2

0 Upvotes

Hey guys, is there any Christmas miracle magic left? My kid and I have had a rough holiday. I got paid but so did all the bills. I couldn't even make a nice dinner for the holidays. I'm just a mom and only one of my kids are here, the others are with their dad. I want my child to feel special. And it's been months since I've been able to afford taco bell. Here's to hoping for one of yall to be so kind and help a mom out? I just want a meal for me and her. That's all nothing fancy or expensive.

Food Received Request- Taco Bell for 2!

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I hope you all had a wonderful holiday! This is my first time posting in this sub, and I’m reaching out with a humble request. We had a pretty tough Christmas—unfortunately, we missed out on the community dinner, and right now I’m living in my car with my boyfriend. With the holidays, his job is giving him three days off this week and almost the whole week next week, so money is going to be tight.

I’ve been unable to work due to chronic pain from a hit-and-run accident, and the doctors haven’t been able to pinpoint exactly what’s causing it. Things have been hard, but I’m staying hopeful and looking forward to the day when I can help others once I’m back on my feet.

In all honesty, we would really love a Luxe Cravings Box with black beans instead of meat, a large drink, and a regular stacker. We could share it and make it last until later or the next day. If anyone could help with some Taco Bell, it would really mean a lot to us. He can walk over and grab it.

Thank you so much for considering our request. We’re just trying to get by, and we’re so grateful for any help and kind words. Wishing everyone a happy new year and sending positive vibes! 😊❤️‍🩹

REQUEST [Request] temp disability, no current job, and so much other bullshit

3 Upvotes

Hi. On September 26, I was working while riding my bike and I got hit by a car. That has fucked me up for the longest time and I'm still healing, still fighting. Today I thought I would get my food stamps card and I thought I could actually eat better but the fucking card printer is out of operation and I need some help.

My fridge is empty and rent went up around the same time as my accident so unemployment, which has actually been helping me for once isn't enough for rent, let alone groceries.

Plz, I need to eat for a few days until I can get foodstamps among many other benefits I need. I hope this kind of post is allowed and if not I'll just take it down but can you help a guy eat for a few days.


r/RandomActsOfTacoBell 7d ago

Offer Collected Offer: I have a $15 gift card to pass on to someone. Tell me a silly holiday tradition you have and I’ll pick someone at about 4:20pm pst on Saturday 12/21. Thanks for sharing and good luck.
