Taco Bell's $1 burrito beats the $3 one if you ask for extra sauce

My crew and I hit the Taco Bell on Broadway near the job site every Tuesday. I finally noticed the $1 bean burrito is basically the same size as the $3 beef one, just less meat. Ask for extra red sauce and it's actually filling plus you save $2 each. We've been doing this for three weeks now and I'm curious if anyone else has a similar hack for stretching a fast food menu item without getting skimpy portions.

My cousin who worked at a Taco Bell in Phoenix told me the bean burrito and the beef burrito use the same tortilla and same scoop size for the filling, so the only real gap is the meat. She said asking for extra red sauce is free at most spots, though some managers will charge you like 30 cents if they are strict. Adding the fiesta strips or the potatoes for under a dollar also bulks it up if you want some crunch. The app has a cravings box deal that sometimes beats doing it piece by piece, so check that before you order. Three weeks of test runs sounds about right for a solid verdict.
