  • sub for a song

    Okay so we are driving to work this morning and I hear that 5 dollar footlong commerical on the radio from subway.Anyways at the end of the commerical it says the sub you can get for a song. my hubby says I'm crazy and people aren't like that.How many agree with me that you know subway is going to be filled with jackasses that sing and think that will get them a footlong sub?

    Can you just imagine???

    BUUUUUUTTTTTT THEEEEEEE COMMMMERRRICALLLL SAAAAIIIIDDDDDDDD(cry bitch and moan)

    Well, since that promotion was over several months ago, I'd hope to gosh that no one really takes it seriously. At least around here, the only "5 dollar footlong" is the daily special. Each day of the week ONE kind of sandwich is $5 for a footlong. And not a one of them is turkey.

    Rawr. But meh, it's only $5.79 for me to get a footlong, so saving 79 cents is not really saving much. When they were all $5, it came to $5.28. So 79 minus 28 is 51...51 whole cents saved. Bleeh I guess I'm not missing much.

      Thats weird.Here in my town they still have the 5.00 footlongs. I was talking to one of the employess.I guess it bought in so much business that they kept the special,but its only certain subs.MMMMMMMM turkey subs

        Around here, the promotion lasted from......late March/early April until May 11th. I remember because I HAD to get one more $5 turkey footlong on that last day, haha.

        I just noticed on their menus here that each day a different sub is the $5 footlong. But then again of course, the turkey one is the second cheapest sandwich, only more expensive than the veggie delight.

          I would totally sing for a sub. Actually if I did sing at Subway, they'd probably give me a sub to stop my banshee like warblings..... Hmmm

          Yeah, my subway still has $5 footlongs. They're weird ones too, only meatball and tuna are the "normal subs". I hope they stay forever becuase well, I like how $5 gets me 2 meals. Very useful on days when I have to go to work right after classes.

          That and if they take away the $5 footlongs, my Subway addiction is going to end up more expensive. I need my tasty healthy sandwiches! Mmmm honey mustard sauce.... I could drink that stuff straight.

              Around here they added the $5 footlongs to the everyday menu (they made a big deal out of it in commercials after the original promotion was supposed to end). I guess that's what "participating locations only" means. Subways are franchised, right? So I guess if an owner doesn't see it being financially worthwhile, they won't do it.

                You may count me in as a triplet then, 'cause I've been told my singing sounds like a cat left outside during a hailstorm.

                  When I went to get a turkey sub and they charged me like $6 for it I was like "Um, what happened to the $5 foot long?"
                  They told me turkey wasn't one of them.
