“Chilango, which is positioning itself as Britain’s response to Chipotle, has issued a series of ‘burrito bonds.’ The notes pay an 8% interest rate semi-annually. More importantly, they also come with a free burrito every week for the duration of the note if you subscribe for £10,000 pounds ($16,800). The Wall Street Journal’s Josie Cox, who first wrote up the story, says this could save burrito hounds more than $600 a year. The minimum investment is £500 ($841). The firm says they’ve already raised nearly $600,000 from 83 investors since the issue went public a week ago. Chilango was founded by two ex-Skype executives in 2007.”
