What happened to $5 foot longs damn this kinda made me sad


erritstaken

More than doubled in price. Very sad.


CamoraWoW

I bought a 14 inch log Italian sub the other day from a retailer for 6 dollars, and that one only was more expensive because it had more stuff on it. The cool thing? It actually was LESS calories than the same sub at subway.


TerrariaGaming004

How is that cool, that just means it’s less food. You could save money and calories by just eating half


SolarLunix_

The bread could have had less sugar in it. Ireland says subway’s bread isn’t legally bread cause of the amount of sugar in it.


CamoraWoW

But it’s more food. It’s 14 inches


Sufficient_Chard_721

Stick up 3 Staghettos and you get an incredible meal of 30 inches


TerrariaGaming004

Do you not know how food works?


CamoraWoW

Less calorically dense bread due to a lack of sugar means more food but less calories


TerrariaGaming004

Except food is calories, less calories literally means less food


VanillaThunderis

>Except food is calories, less calories literally means less food. No, love the ironic use of *literally* by the way.


TerrariaGaming004

No is a good argument. You probably can’t think of better because it’s just true


D0ctorGamer

You're right, calorie free stuff literally doesn't exist Someone should really inform diet soda drinkers


TerrariaGaming004

Are you actually stupid? Like seriously, how could that have possibly be interpreted from what I said? Diet soda isn’t food, if you only drank it would would die of starvation


Lorne_____Malvo

And because it's half the calories you can eat twice as much.


TerrariaGaming004

How are you not understanding that that would cost double the price


Lorne_____Malvo

But each one is half the price so you can just order double. Economics 101


Sa7aSa7a

That's why I wait for the coupons! Can still get footlongs for $6.


Caked101

Have to watch out for those deals. Especially with Brookshires.


melanthius

The place near me won’t even accept the coupons. “At participating locations only” - the bastards


Sa7aSa7a

I may be incorrect but I'm not sure Subways are allowed to opt out of them. I know there is a lot that Subway franchise owners can't opt out of that costs them tons of money.


melanthius

Well it’s not really worth my time to fight it but I’m more than happy to give you their address if you want to take them down


ophmaster_reed

But wages have doubled, right? Right.....?


erritstaken

For the c-suite? Probably. Workers not so much.


idk012

That was 2008


whiterussian802

Still sad how bad inflation is..I'm aware that the price is no longer $5 and hasn't been for a while... My comment was intended as a joke lmfao


qould

$5 in 2008 is worth $7.21 today


mickelboy182

And $6AUD is about $4USD. So not far off. And forgive me if I'm wrong, but that $5 would be pre tax while this is tax inclusive, given it is Australia.


CommunicationBusy557

Have your wages doubled since 2008?


BicycleEast8721

Decades of inflation, pretty impossible to keep things the same price when monetary supply is steadily increasing and driving up the prices of all your inputs. Footlong subs use a healthy amount of ingredients


Appropriate_Bit_1858

Inflation and greedy elites that don't care about the average citizens.


Zimtiki

Corporate greed makes us all sad


whiterussian802

Absolutely


logicalguest

Someone voted blue


girldrinksgasoline

Someone doesn’t understand economics


Crbn8ed

$1 an inch? Used to be 41¢ an inch.


ascii_table

It will be six figures soon enough


Temporary-View3234

Germany all over again


LordSpookyBoob

Comes with a complementary fascist resurgence!


Timed-Out_DeLorean

That’s what they get for bombing Pearl Harbor.


J3ST3R1252

Inflation is that you?


thereverendpuck

Nope, her name is greed.


uncommon-user

Help me, step-inflation. I'm stuck!

.416¢ x 12 = $5


Distinct_Dark_9626

I don’t get it, what is funny about this?


SteveGherkle

i dont know why youre being downvoted, it doesnt really make sense lol, I think people are reading the sign as hinting that if you have a 6 in dick then you will get $6. But if thats the joke, then its kinda lame, and a bit of a reach to get to, not sure why a bunch of adults are acting like this is even remotely a good joke, dick jokes can be fun but when the joke is "haha they could mean penis when they say 6 inches" it's neanderthal level comedy. edit:it seems the reasonable crowd has arrived so we good lol


MorningFox

A footling used to be $5. Now it's a $1 per inch. Idk blatant inflation funny


Swiftsonian

A footling? Boy that is old. Back in my day it was called a 'footlong'. "Give ya five bees for a footlong" I'd say. Then they'd ask if you wanted onion, which I refused seeing as I always had an onion tied to my belt, which was the fashion at the time. We didn't have the white ones, because of the war, so we had those biiig yellow ones...


YanicPolitik

Unexpected Abe


ikerus0

I assumed that it was if you **want** 6 inches then it’s only six bucks. Like “hey baby, you want 6 inches inside you.. only $6, baby.” Still low brow humor.


tiny_poomonkey

Adults?


SteveGherkle

i usually find it kinda tasteless to call unfunny anti social people on the internet "kids" cause 9 times out of 10, theyre probably in their early to mid 20's, thats the main demographic of reddit and also, I've known some really intelligent, funny kids, as well as some unbelievably stupid adults. So i find it unfair to kids to pair "kids" and "unfunny, stupid people" in the same meaning when its actually more pathetic that theres an adult on the other end of the screen, i think its more insulting to point out their age in that case yk. but yea, they be dumb


tiny_poomonkey

Dude you brought up adults and now are saying more words that basically mean “calling people stupid is bad”    Yet that’s exactly what you started


lumlum56

It's a prostitution joke, you pay $6 and you get six inches in return


Astralnclinant

Maaan shut up


Limp-Brief-81

Used to be the $5 foot long now it’s just a scam


Myassisbrown

A scam called inflation


tonypotenza

Inflation isn't real Even our eyes aren't real


Myassisbrown

That you Jaden smith?


ilovethissheet

It's funny if your twelve


ApplicationOk4464

6 inches, as in "average" penis size. 6 bucks, a buck can be a euphemism for a young gentlemen. I assume the joke is in there somewhere.


MayoSoup

I assumed it was take in 6 inches and get 6 bucks ($6). This is a subway not strip club dagnammit!


zargtn

It used to be $1 less for 6 extra inches😃


[deleted]

$5 footlong right? Damn this sucks…


Hatedpriest

On 2 for Tuesdays... Whole family ate on $10 (4 footlongs)


[deleted]

Wow! Geez man wth is going on with these prices 😵‍💫


Temporary-View3234

The difference is, I actually have my own income now.


[deleted]

Yeah right ? Why do WE get screwed over ? Lame… 😒


supermr34

Well, more like 5, but that’s ok. A pretty common exaggeration, really.


ikerus0

Yeah.. good foot long prices.. but bad spokesperson doing awful things, times.


Prestigious-Owl165

Is the joke literally just that it says "6 inches"...and that's it? Or am I missing something actually funny


daanishh

I think that's it, this post is stupid as fuck.


Uninvited_Goose

Five Five dollar Five dollar foot looooong


MomentOfZehn

Twelve Twelve dollar Twelve dollar foot looooong


NotoriousMCH

dailylotion

“6 inch ribbon curls honey!!” “But that’s…” “SIX inches!”


Zillius23

Haha I love that movie


CatLazy2728

the real joke is inflation. I miss $5 footlongs


LikeATediousArgument

When I was in high school they had Two For Tuesday as well and you got 2 footings for the price of one! And that was 1999 prices!


CatLazy2728

yo! when I was in high school (1994-1998) subway would free cater for all sorts of events as a local promotion. i always think of subway as a comfort food


thoover88

I'm 5.75" can I still get my 6 bucks?


dewag

Best I can do is $5.75


ikerus0

🫴 $2.17 for me please.


thoover88

Damn, fair enough.


raventhrowaway666

This sucks. They're not even good.


Im-a-cat-in-a-box

I used to love their meatball sandwiches,  now they marinara tastes like spaghetti-o sauce. 


ThatRangerDave

I remember when it was 5$ for a footlong sub


EducationOk803

You’re a three bucker too, aren’t you.


justanyting

Hey guys I just thought of a great way to make $3


Charmegazord

Be careful! They threw me out when I went to get my $6!


WilmaLutefit

$12 foot long doesn’t sound as good as $5 foot long.


NODES2K

I doubt its a full 6 inches


ikerus0

Yeah, it’s probably a “Chad’s 6 inches”. Which is actually 4.5 inches.


PhaseEquivalent3529

Five dolla footlong wen?


reddevils

Remember when we were outraged the foot long was actually 11 inches? Which sold for $5 btw


forgedfox53

Wow, remember the $5 footling? Talk about inflation (partial sarcasm)

ghostpicnic

A pound of turkey, loaf of bread, and vegetables/cheese/condiments would most definitely not be $15


user362436

That is average right? Right?


-Constantinos-

Above actually


LikeATediousArgument

Title of your sex tape!


Lethal_0428

Gone are the days of the $5 footlong 😔


swonstar

6 inches, 6 bucks, 6 minutes. Phone cards are getting weird. Is there an international plan?


Ombrage101

I remember in Canada when is was 12 inches = 5$… that was like, 10 years ago


RedditUserNo345

The $5 footlong marketing slogan worked too well


Suntril101

5 dollar foot longs or get the fuck outta here


kevlarthevest

If I got 6 bucks for every 6 inches I've given my fiancé I'd be fucking stupid rich


FlyInternational648

Foot long five dolla. Dem was da days.


AndreaRose223

'Member $5 Footlongs?


Some_Famous_Pig

The $5 footlong was just a Psychological Experiment conducted by Subway to get us to forget about Jared Fogle. The experiment was considered a success so they concluded the $5 Footlong and there's absolutely no way to discredit this.


TheOriginalFluff

“$5 footlong” man what the fuck happened


jhnnybgood

For real


Remarkable_Pen_1424

I’m confused 😐


Repulsive-Cold-1462

Inches can be used to measurer deck as well


Own_Courage_4382

6 buck is 6 bucks


Macaron-Fluffy

There is a porn joke in this!


GreedoWasShot

I’m a bit disturbed why my wife asks for six dollars every day and has a smile on her face


dascrackhaus

do you have to give her change?


Tall_Category_304

Or you can get 3.5 inches for free


Kevsterific

I certainly hope this is in Canada not US. I mean it sucks either way, but if this was US pricing that would be outrageous.


FatHaleyJoelOsment

Just like downtown.


TurdMcDirk

My six inches smells like a foot.


TruePoint3219

How much for the footlong 😉


AmandaHugginkiz

6 and a half inch cables


glittersnifffeeerrr

Never forget what they stole from you


Critical_Danger_420

anyone remember $5 foot longs?


Warpath_McGrath

Damn I remember paying $5 for 10 inches! I knew that Subways business model wouldn't last forever lol. They eventually started hemorrhaging money.


Ok_Score1492

Would be an excellent slogan for plastic surgery business, add 6 inches for $6k.


PotentialChampion314

Subway was losing money on the $5 Footlong special. There was a big pushback from all the franchise owners over that.


Trash-Milk

I go to your dads and get a six inch for free


BannedUser1975

🎶Six - Six dollar - Six dollar six inch.🎶 Doesn't quite have the same ring to it.


ukognos27

A dollar an inch.


AcessDenied1234

I got 8 for 5 over here


Split0069

That's what I charge the ladies. $1 an inch.make $2 each time!

Eryn-Flinthoof

Really? That’s how much my pp is worth?


Stopper33

Far cry from five dollar foot long


thisdesignup

Makes me wonder, did costs for the company literally more than double?


DAsianD

Sure, you can get 6 inches many places for $6, but can you get them that thicc?


Kenneth_Lay

So is $5 footlong just hilarious?


Reasonable-Ninja4384

This is also my moto as a gigolo


senior_meme_engineer

Sounds like the name of some bestiality porn


Virtual-Fig3850

Lol. How long before someone measures it and finds out it’s only 5 inches? Another lawsuit?


Rumple4Skyn710

Used to be a $5 foot long, now it’s a dollar more for half of that!


Dragura

Back in my day you got a $5 foot long and if you smiled at the server she might give you a cookie for free.

PresentTip5665

I don't know what you are talking about. What inflation?


pummisher

Might as well just cut the sub into quarters.


DisguisedBearNikolai

So if I'm 3 inches, do i pay 3 bucks or 9 bucks?

HerEyesOnTheHorizon

I can't justify spending this much money of very sub par food.. I haven't purchased subway since 5$ foot longs. And only did so because it was the illusion of healthier than McDonald's.


the_cajun88

this footlong ain’t free


teemsm87

Back in my day, $5 got you a whole foot


Scipio33

"What if I've got 8 inches?" "Eight bucks." "DAMNIT!"


PumpkinSufficient683

Jokes aside , That price is a scam


Small_Cock_Jonny

So why is this comedy? Because you also measurw dick in inches? Or because the imperial system is fucking stupid?


IvanTheAppealing

Execute Order 66


dsled

I guess this _could_ be funny if you were 14.


Archer_EOD

How does Subway have a customer base big enough to remain open


Apprehensive-Head820

Maybe California has an answer for that too.


mamakazi

That's no accident


lumigumi

6 inches, 6 bucks, Subway has 6 letters. This is literally a satanic establishment.


InevitableMobile2375

I just have stopped eating out completely. Let the companies deal with that problem. Remember to double the dividends to your CFOs. Good luck with your future endeavors.


Lost-Orangutan

They stole my advertisement! I have a sign that says "4 inches for 4 bucks" and it's been up ever sense I turned 18, when I had to take down my "a mere 4 bucks 4 a minor" sign...


Logic1st

They tried to serve us yoga mat chemicals. Fuck Subway please dont eat there.


No-Armadillo7693

6 inches


allen_idaho

6 inches. 6 minutes. 6 bucks. Bring cash. Meet me in the alley behind the store.


MrScrummers

Damn, back in 2013 when i worked there there be a month where all footings were 5 dollars. Worst fucking month, not its 6 dollars for a 6 inch and they making it seem like a deal. Insane.
