Jimmy John's Launches New Toasted Sandwiches Nationwide with $1 Million Giveaway

Jimmy John's is taking its new toasted sandwiches nationwide and is giving away $1 million worth of them to mark the occasion.

Beginning Monday, March 3, in addition to opting for a toasted version of any sandwich on the menu, you can also try one of three new toasted sandwiches: Chicken Bacon Ranch, Roast Beef & Cheddar, and Ultimate Italian (prices start at $8.59 and vary by location).

The new menu items come after Jimmy John's tested various toasted sandwiches across more than 200 stores over the past 1½ years. "The brand listened to guest feedback along the way and modified the product line up throughout the test in order to develop the best products for national launch," the company said in a statement to USA TODAY.

Want to try one of the new sandwiches for free? Jimmy John’s is giving away $1 million worth of Toasted Sandwiches for "Toasted Tuesday," on March 4. That day, you can claim the deal on the Jimmy John’s app (available in the Apple App Store and Google Play store) or on the website using the promo code TOASTEDTUESDAY.

The giveaway will be available all day until the $1 million worth of sandwiches is gone (one free sandwich per person, while supplies last).

“No one does sandwiches like Jimmy John’s, and while we may be fashionably late to the Toasted Sandwich party, we’ve made sure they’re worth the wait,” said Jimmy John's chief brand marketing officer Darin Dugan in a press release. “Our guests have been patient, so we’re saying thanks the best way we know how – by giving away $1 million worth of these crispy, melty sandwiches. They’re everything you love about Jimmy John’s, now with a toasty twist.”
