Chipotle wants you to eat, sleep, and decorate your house like you're one of its restaurants.

The fast casual burrito behemoth on Tuesday announced a new loyalty program geared toward Gen Z students and a merchandise line in collaboration with Urban Outfitters.

The loyalty program, Chipotle U, allows students to earn points with each purchase. These points can be redeemed for free food or use to waive the guacamole surcharge.

The product collection, which features a lamp shaped like a chip bag, bean bag chairs, and a foil throw blanket, goes on sale on Wednesday at select Urban Outfitters in university towns and online at the retailer's website.

Take a look at the "A Little Extra" dorm collection below.

The Chipotle-themed items include a $16 water tumbler and $59 lamp shaped like a chip bag

"Urban Outfitters is Gen Z's destination for their next favorite find, and Chipotle is an iconic part of campus life, so teaming up was a natural fit," said Cyntia Leo, head of brand marketing at Urban Outfitters, said in a statement about the drop.

The collab includes a $99 burrito blanket for any student who's ever wanted to resemble the food they stress-eat during finals season

The dorm room decor has the Chipotle superfan in mind, and the new loyalty program will aim to reward them further: offering limited-time promotions during finals, game days, and free food during graduation giveaways.

Bean bag chairs — available in black or pinto colors — will run $299 each
