Asked to speak to manager but none available. Probably would not have led to any difference. So, now we have Subway coupon Nazi's. What is supposed to be a marketing technique to encourage business becomes an intimidating experience.

I wonder what would have happened had I gone to end of line and reordered a sandwich and tried to use a coupon. I guess, I am not that interested in conflict.

I was told about a year ago by a Subway employee that they do accept expired coupons. On my most recent visit, I had an expired coupon and was told they will no longer accept expired coupons; orders from the Supervisor.

Totally agree! Trying bring a restaurant owner. Yes, coupons can help business, but some people want everything free. Store owners have to make a living. We used to have people try to use a FREE coupon and want it delivered on top of that!! Those are the same people who stiff the delivery boy of their TIP!!!!

How can you complain when you violated the restrictions printed on the coupon.

He said the Subway workers were Nazis, lol.

You're allowed to do anything you want to Nazis, except the current ones running the Ukraine.

OBB, You are my spirit animal. I don't know if I know you or not, but with every post of yours you speak for me. It's a bit disconcerting actually.

Possibly you 2 are twins that got separated at birth?????

And Subway was slow to leave Russia, which gives them money to continue their aggression.

Subway
 
We stopped at a Subway along the way on a trip to Virginia. They had a sign up "No Coupons Accepted". Be glad you got to use one!

Seems like other sandwich shops have upped their game passing subway. Once upon a time used to look forward to having a footlong but those days are passed.

We've said goodbye to Subway in the last year. We have dumb phones and won't install 'The Subway app'. No deals for you, no app, pay full price. Bye.

Your first issue was walking into a Subway to start with. For the life of me I don’t know why people eat there. Went once and had one slice of turkey in my turkey sub.

I concur....one and done for me too

IMHO, Publix does make a great grinder/sub (whatever you wanna call it) and the bread is always fresh

After reading this thread, it sounds like Subway needs a better publicity program. It's just a sandwich! With almost 40,000 stores, some people must like their food.
