Starting this month, you can now pick up a bag of Jimmy John’s Jimmy Chips from more than 3,000 Walmart locations.

For the first time ever, Jimmy John's iconic Jimmy Chips will be available to purchase from Walmart. The chips come in two fan-favorite flavors of the chips –Regular and BBQ – and will be sold along with other premium kettle-style chip brands. As Jimmy John's Chief Marketing Officer Darin Dugan explains, "This is a huge moment for Jimmy Chips fans because for the first time, they will be able to shop for their favorite crunchy, flavorful chips at Walmart."

As an added perk, each bag of Jimmy Chips will be branded with a QR that allows fans to access the Freaky Fast Rewards program and sign up to earn exclusive loyalty perks.
