We went to Subway a few weeks ago without paying attention to the prices and it was over $30 for two 6" sandwiches, chips, and drinks. What in the absolute fuck? Oh, and then of course the stupid credit card machine asks for a tip with 20% prefilled. A single 6" sub is $10 now. We won’t be going back.
Subway also used to be the “build your own sandwich” place. Locally, they’ve moved to a “catered” menu or some such nonsense, now it’s just a run of the mill submarine sandwich shop.
I’m pretty sure you can’t even get anything from the “old” menu anymore. the $5 footlong is now a point in history that will not be repeated, since all of those catered sandwiches are easily $10+ for a footlong, unless you want them to modify it in any way at all, because that will cost extra. Drink? fuck you, $3 for a fountain drink that costs less than $0.50 in materials, and you have to get it yourself. Want a bottled drink because you’re heading out and don’t want to spill it in the car? that’s $4.50. want to make it a combo and get a uselessly small bag of chips or a couple of heated ice-cream scoop sized dobs of pre-made batter that’s been heated? ha ha, PROFIT!
The prices are made up but being fairly regular at soubway, they’re not far from the truth. the whole idea of getting a meal at any food place for $5 or less is basically impossible. I consider it a good deal if I’m getting lunch for less than $10. The nice thing is that burger king still has whopper wednesdays, where you can get a second whopper for $1. Makes the whole meal of two whoppers around $5, then I just pour myself a nice glass of go fuck yourself I’m drinking tap water, and I have an actually affordable lunch.
Bk is my cheap option too. I can’t eat 2 whoppers but they have a special for 2 whopper Jr’s for 5$ going. When that isn’t going I just get 2 double cheeseburger. Both come out to 6ish dollars which is a he’ll of a lot better than 10+ I have to pay anywhere else near my job.
