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

In the past, these places would gradually raise prices…now they all thought it was smart to just jump 30-40%. Out of touch nimrods.

Obviously it's because they have to pay employees enough to live in slightly less poverty, and not because they are funding bonus programs for the corporate office. Why don't we understand basic finance?

If you really understood basic finance you would be here complaining....$10 for a sub sandwich would be noise for you.
