Jimbo’s Naturally Supports YWCA Through It’s in the Bag Program The next time that you’re shopping at Jimbo’s Naturally, be sure to bring in your own shopping bags! The bag can be cloth or a reused plastic or paper bag. When Jimbo’s bags your groceries as you check out, they’ll count the number of bags that would have been needed. For each full size bag that would have been used to bag your groceries, Jimbo’s will offer you a choice of a standard U.S. nickel minted by the Treasury Department, or a wooden nickel minted by Jimbo’s. If you choose the wooden nickel, you can place it in the YWCA of San Diego County’s collection can that will be located near the register. Jimbo’s will then count up all of the wooden nickels and write a check for the equivalent cash value to the YWCA! Please support Jimbo’s and the YWCA of San Diego County today by visiting one of the following locations: 4S Ranch Escondido Carlsbad Carmel Valley |
