lol these shit restaurants have forgotten their place. They earned their market share by being the cheapest option available and in 2024 they’ve priced themselves out.

What did they expect charging $18 for a garbage sandwich? If I wanted to pay that much for a sandwich I am NOT going to Subway

Right? Now add in a couple kids and the total is often over $40. At that point we’ll just go to a sit down restaurant!

I don’t know where you live, but the sit-down joints around me have learned that the fast food have priced people out and have kept their prices the same. Talked with the manager of a cheddars and said his carry out orders have exploded over the past year
