THEY WHAT?

I don't even eat at Subway, but nearly tripling the price in one go? My gawd.

It hasn’t actually been $5 in a long time. It was like $7 last time I went (a few years ago).

I go to Subway with an upsetting degree of regularity, but it's the only place where I can get fresh vegetables as part of my meal in under 30 minutes. The cheapest footlong on the menu is the Spicy Italian (or whatrver their latest menu refresh is calling it) for $10.99. Any other sub is $11.99 and up.

Lmao I unknowingly liked their cheapest sandwich best

[–] Stegget@lemmy.world 6 points 4 weeks ago

Five years ago I could get a foot long spicy italian combo with chips and a drink for less than $10.

You can get more reasonable prices per sandwich with coupon codes. For the ones near me, they almost always have a "FLBOGO" or "BOGOFTL" or "FTL1299" or similar variation to get two for the price of one. But YMMV and you have to be ok with leftovers if you're eating alone.

You also have to order from the app to use these.

about 10 years ago subway replaced the ice cream shop at the local amusement park. the prices they had there were insane, and they didnt even have all the regular menu options. 20 something dollars for HALF a footlong. what a joke

No, it's been incremental for a while now.
