For each non-perishable canned food item or canned pet food item donated the participant will receive 200 Bling Bling Bucks and for each canned fish, meat product, peanut butter, jelly or a bag of Pet Food donated they will receive 400 Bling Bling Bucks

All non-perishable food items will be donated to Colquitt County Food Bank and all pet food will be donated to Colquitt County Humane Society.

Darrell Griner said the food drive is a “fun way to gather food for needy families and pets and a rewarding way to thank those who participate, by giving out prizes.”

Some of the other ways to gain Bling Bling Bucks are by bringing in the store’s weekly newspaper ad and by returning weekly post cards mailed out to each participant.

No purchase is necessary to participate and all the prizes are on display in the store.
