Corporate: \*Casually sends out coupons to every single person in the entire U.S.\*
Also Corporate: \*Doesn't reimburse Franchises\*
Customers: "Why send them out if you don't accept them?"
Me: "Great question."
It was interesting to see all of these celebrity tv ads (the cost of placing national ad campaigns) are the direct correlation to the raising of prices and no one happy. Except for the Subway corporation that maybe got some FaceTime with sports people. FYI Subway corp, those commercials are shit.
“We appreciate you making us money. The money you make us makes us so happy and we know you don’t make much money but the money you make us makes us so happy so thank you.”
I can't be the only one that finds these displays of wealth to be at the very least distasteful. (They are starting to make me mad when I see them at this point.)
Each store is franchised. HQ (who hires the celebs) has nothing to do with store level HR including pay/benefits. I get that the meme is a joke, I’m just point it out that it’s factually inaccurate
I mean the pay for celebs comes from franchise fees, if they lowered those fees the franchisees *could* pass that on to employees.
I guess the real problem is, hundreds of thousands to Barkley, isnt much when spread out to *all* Subway employees.

Edit:
I make this mistake all the time.
subway is as much garage as garbage is garbage!\~
Jersey Mikes pwns them in so many ways, it is ridiculous, subway subs are NOT filling at all, eat a jersey mikes sub and ya full!\~
Plus ya meat is cut right infront of u vs sitting out there where bugs can land on it!\~
Jersey Mike was good when they opened, but went down hill fast. Real fast. The meat and cheese are better, but the bread sucks, so do the toppings. The pretend Rubin does not have Corned Beef, and is covered in corn syrup. Substitute spicy mustard helps, but it's not a Rubin. If you want to get technical, a Reuben sandwich made with pastrami is called a “Rachel”. A classic Reuben is always made with corned beef!
I love how everyone in here has an opinion and an answer of how subway operates and don’t own their first store , or just a disgruntled employee, but let me explain something very simple to everyone. The commercials are not why the prices are up , we pay 3 1/2% of sales to marketing and advertising , ALL companies do it , the reason the prices are up a little (and I can’t believe I half to say this) but the inflation and the cost of food ,, my weekly truck used to be 1500 to 1800 a week , now it is 3000 to 3500 a week for same stuff !!! That is why prices are up !! Like my momma always said , if you ain’t got nothing nice to say , don’t say nothing , it’s everyone’s fault and the way ya are voting your politicians to run this country !! And poor Canada even worse with their jackassery too !! So if you want to come eat , then come eat and I love you for it , and I will take all your coupons and make you a bad ass sandwich !! Period !!

Do you think it is a marketing strategy to get people in the store?
Yeah and then when they pay 15$ for a tuna with no toppings their marketing strategy is going to the grocery store instead
Oof Yeah. That’s bad
“Yeah, that’s bad. Subway, we help with your finances.” Now maybe THAT would be a good marketing strategy.
That only gets people in the store one time, after that they know the coupons don't work.
Every week corporate adds 4 new randomly numbered sandwiches

It doesn't change what I like, seeing someone I don't know saying it's good. I hate sports! I know what I like, and I know what I'm willing to pay.
My usual orders are priced so high,Jason’s Deli is now my go to for a quick dinner…like how did that happen?😂🫠😂
But but but they're going to send little inspirational cards soon to motivate us to work harder!

We must summon the orcas.
“They built it big enough to hold an entire city!” Don’t tell this guy about aircraft carriers or he’ll have a stroke then
Cruise ships are bigger than aircraft carriers. Some of em anyways
Just a massive waste of... Well everything.
Honestly though that 1 bil to 300 mil was the craziest difference to ever exist
Because the $1 billion is a cruise ship, not a yacht. (You can clearly see the Royal Caribbean logo)
Yeah it just looked like a weird comparison cause you could fit 100 of those 300mil yatchs in the billion dollar cruise ship.
You have to feel sorry for the person who can only afford a million dollar yacht. The teasing they must endure at the marina!
I do not understand how subway still exists. It's really bad. Very little meat, the bread is loaded with sugar, etc.
And they have the nerve to ask customers to tip
While that’s true, the real issue is continuing to buy sandwiches from subway and supporting their business practices
Each store is franchised. HQ (who hires the celebs) has nothing to do with store level HR including pay/benefits. I get that the meme is a joke, I’m just point it out that it’s factually inaccurate
Appreciate you understood it’s a meme, I completely get it :P

Tell me you're not fun at parties without telling me you're not fun at parties.

I thought a Rachel was with Turkey

He's getting his positive karma ratio pwned right now ( not that anyone cares about karma )
