Jimmy John’s on East Main Street will be giving out $1 sub sandwiches on Thursday.

The subs will be available from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. and only for menu items one through six.

Mary Trader, Jimmy John’s spokeswoman, said the $1 deal is to thank the city of Kent.

“It’s just a way to give back to the community,” she said. “It’s just a fun event.”

Trader said they picked a day in October because students are back in school, and it’s getting closer to midterms.

The Kent Jimmy John’s, which opened in 2007, is located at 313 E. Main St. For more information, visit www.jimmyjohns.com or call the store at (330) 677-4200.
