    That's what I always do. I just loved the $5 promo because I would get pretty much whatever kind of sandwich I wanted and split it with my wife and a meal is down for relatively cheap and almost no effort. I mean ****, I have chips and drinks at home so bfd.

    I'll jump on that quiznos though, I have one even closer to my house and I haven't really given them a chance because their prices are usually a bit much.

    I had a double meat steak and cheese (they call it "prime rib" now) for dinner tonight and i was told that they are no longer "$5 footlong"

    i was charged $9.72 for just the sandwich

    i'm done for subway for the near future.

    Just saw a commercial saying that the 5$ footlongs are going to be an everyday thing.

    Personally, it doesn't matter to me...they could make those things 1$ and I'd still think they are nasty. I'm firmly convinced that most people tolerate Subway because they know it's good for them.

    I wouldn't say that Subway has "super healthy" subs. Even if you get something that's low in fat and calories, it's probably going to be through the roof in sodium. For a foot long, it might even be your entire recommended daily intake.

    Someday all these people eating Subway everyday to lose weight will die of heart disease at age 50.

    Probably not, but they are still incredibly high in sodium and that is definitely not healthy.

    I was at Subway yesterday and I discovered this sad news as well. The guy didn't seem like he knew what the hell he was talking about, despite the fact that there was some sort of $5 footlong sign.

    I guess I wasn't paying enough attention because it was probably the everyday $5 deal, which is most excellent.

    I don't care about the foot long calories, I'm 21. I'm quite literally invincible.

    They still have 8 different subs that will be $5.00 daily not just on special.

    Pretty Sweeeet!

    THERE IS NOTHING HEALTHY ABOUT SUBWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    If I have another friend suggest that we "Go to Subway because I want to eat healthy today" and then order a god damn foot long cold cut trio, I'm going to explode.

    You can porve none of this. None!

    And even if I do prefer long sandwiches at the lunch sitting, that does not detract from my persuasive advice for clutchfans, houstonians, and other sandwich eaters.

    It can be healthy, like any food, you just have to make it that way.

    Next you're going to tell me that my footlong's worth of double cheese, extra mayo, and oil and vinegar isn't good for me.

    You are not literally invincible. Don't take it personally, everyone literally misuses 'literally' bc it sounds so powerful as a figure of speech.

    I hope my weapon of choice, the sweet onion chicken teriyaki is still a 5er.

    Probably loaded with sodium, but how often to people eat fresh veggies? I know I don't often enough.

    My nephew frustrates me when I take him to Subway and he orders a footlong turkey on white bread... that's it... as in turkey, bread. BAM, $7. Or it least it was before this awesome campaign.

    Lol, no offense taken. It's funny I looked up literally after this post and it's supposed to not be used as a synonym for "actually" or "really".


    The English are crazy people.
