No matter how steadily the debate rages on, the fact is that there’s almost no limit to what you can place between two slices of bread and call a sandwich. And on National Sandwich Day, November 3, there are a ton of restaurants that are celebrating by offering you a deal on one. Here’s where to find free and discount food on Friday:

Jimmy John’s

Members of Jimmy John’s Freaky Fast Rewards program can enjoy $1 off all mobile orders all day on National Sandwich Day. And in case you’re a big sandwich fan, you can buy a limited-edition jacket as part of the chain’s collaboration with high-end streetwear brand Starter. The jacket costs $150 and will be available for purchase on the Jimmy John’s online store on November 3. All proceeds from the jacket sales will be donated to Jimmy John’s Foundation, a partner of the Boys & Girls Clubs of America.

McAlister’s Deli
