Hi, so a month ago I wrote about how the 599FOOTLONG code for $5.99 footlongs at Subway wasn't working anymore:

https://slickdeals.net/f/16003708-select-subway-restaurants-footlong-sub-6#comments

I then tried the code FOOTLONG599, which was the code they used before 599FOOTLONG, and it worked. Well I tried FOOTLONG599 this morning, and it said it expired. So I tried 599FOOTLONG, and it worked! It looks like they switch between these two codes every few weeks or months, so if one doesn't work, try the other one!

The owners would make a lot more if they didn't have to pay for all of those SPORTS FIGURES shilling the products.
They should be able to shut down the stores for not allowing the promotions I'm tired of seeing these promos and the stores won't honor them the subway franchise should have to require them to accept or be taken away there rights to have ownership of the franchise I don't want to hear how much business they lose to the promos they already use scraps for food wrapped up in wax paper ready to be served .
I went to subway for the first time I'm years a month ago. I paid 8.99 for a sub and was royally pissed off when I got done eating it. Not worth it. Been making my own at home that are much better.

I don't "tip" my dentist, I just pay them. I don't expect if I slipped them a $20 they would clean my teeth 20% better. Your argument is incredibly weak.
That's the difference between how your mind works and mine. You're concerned about saving a buck, and I'm concern that that person making my sandwich, salad, or whatever is able to pay their rent and car payment, so that when I come in to get my sandwich, they're thinking about making my sandwich instead of whether or not they can pay their bills. Most dentists are pushing close to $200k a year. What do you think a fast food worker who makes sandwich takes in? In a 40 hour week making $12.50/hr they would make $500 before taxes. They might keep $425 of that, then they still have to pay their rent/mortgage, car payment, utilities, just like everybody else.
Quote from syndkit :
Agree.. there are a few places that we frequent and the wait staff trips over themselves for us to be in their section. We're not stars or anything we just tip properly if not extremely nice in most places. And yes the service goes beyond at those locations (hence frequency).. not because of us it's because of them and their attentiveness. They appreciate the gratuity and few cases we were told it helped pay a bill for them. Actually had one cry after receiving the tip. You never know when you can actually make a small difference in one's life! Amazingly just a tip/gratuity could do it for them. You just never know what their life circumstances are to be in a specific job or function. Let them know you appreciate what they are doing for YOU. Of course, it does go the other way for crappy service..still leave a tip just not a proper one to let them know you didn't forget the tip! Done that a few times and once with a note.
Same here. I've gotten to know a lot of the staff at the local restaurants, and it's a whole different experience when you go out. Not only are you eating at a restaurant, but you also get to interact with the various workers behind the scenes. You know the cooks, managers, wait staff, etc, and a lot of times they're happy to see you. If the service in just awful, it's likely I'll still tip, but probably won't go back.

I'm not saying I don't care about employee well-being... I do, very much actually. So much so that I want the corporations employing them to stop guilt-tripping me for extra cash and instead focus on paying their employees a liveable wage. I don't see why that makes me the bad guy?

I didn't say it makes you bad. You could be the nicest guy in your zip code. I just know it means a lot of many of these low wage employees when people give a little extra.

no thanks.

workers should demand higher wages, shops should charge us more, and we should all collectively abolish this stupid tipping system.

I was abusing the crap out of this code for months before my local Subway finally ditched both variations (FOOTLONG599 and 599FOOTLONG). Sometimes one worked, then the other worked...and then some time this summer, both codes stopped working and I was sad. I will never pay full price for subway food, but to get one of the new Subway Series sandwiches for $6 is pretty good value in my opinion.

Glad to see the codes are working again, yay! Thanks OP!

Quote from flamingonut :
Years ago, picked up a small tuna sandwich for lunch.
Got back to work, and my sandwich had NO tuna. Just lettuce, tomato, onions, o&v, smh. Sent off a scathing email to corporate. All they said was sorry. Haven't been back since. Blimpies has always been better anyway, imo.
I had something similar happen. ordered 5 subs for a meeting. All with the same basic toppings, but then a couple different meats, mayo and mustard on the side. I got 5 subs of toppings, no meat. They accused us of eating the meat and trying to get more. It was so awkward. Although the best was my wife ordering a a pepperoni pizza with cheese and pepperoni only from Pizza Hut because she's mildly allergic to tomatoes. We got a pile of melted cheese and pepperoni in a box.

what....

app doesn't even let you tip when I go all the way to the place order screen
Subway wages aren't based on tipping culture as far as I know

Is this all about a tipping jar that has probably been sitting in the same spot for decades? Take a deep breath, step back, and go look for a post about restaurant TOGO orders.


Anyway, the coupon worked on all the sandwiches I tried (classic, vault, series) EXCEPT for series sandwiches that were a little higher than the others (>$12 in my market). I think I only found one sandwich over $12 that it worked on...making that the only sandwich which $5.99 beats BOGO monetarily.

Quote from alMac :
They are not loosing.. they are just telling the workers to skimp the toppings. Few that do participate, my last online sub was very thin and mostly bread only. Never again at Subway.

Dont know whats the reason but seems to be these owners/workers are extremely stingy.
I can testify that the same thing happened to me. I ordered two of their new XL subs with a B1G1 coupon from part of the community coupons they sent out to everyone. I made my ordered online and when I got to the store the sandwiches were light and just normal sized with laughable few toppings after I specifically suggested extra toppings online.

Quote from chris431 :
Tip the owners. They're losing $15.99 per sub at this price. Or, that's what I read on the interweb.
Last Week Tonight: Subway [youtube.com]

John Oliver did a whole story about just how terrible Subway's business structure is. The way he makes it sounds, if you buy a Subway franchise, you've basically already farked yourself.

This code is for orders placed in the Subway app. The Subway app doesn't have a "tip" feature. And at the Subway by me, there's a "mobile order pickup" shelf near the front door... I'll walk in and my sandwich will already be waiting on that shelf, with the receipt taped to the bag showing my name at the top and no hint of which employee actually made it.

So who do I tip, and how? And how do I make sure the tips actually end up going to the employee I tip, and not to the franchise owner (who's getting screwed either way) or the corporate office?

End stage capitalism is all sorts of ugly and horrifying... I don't think my randomly tipping people who happen to be the near the end of various supply chains is going to fix the problem. I do think the problem ought to be fixed.

Curious do you tip the workers at McDonald's or other fast food restaurants? Didn't think so...

When I see some athlete that can barely read off a teleprompter, who without sports would likely be working at the very restaurant they're now hocking BS for, it makes me resent the company for paying these idiots obscene amounts because they believe their customers are equally ignorant and superficially manipulated.

Make a good product for a fair price and I'll buy it. The pricing, serving, fine print, PR games are next level and I'm over this garbage. I'm not even going to get started on "news".

It's a raging dumpster fire out there. People need to wake up or it WILL get worse.

I've been using this coupon almost every week for the past 6 months with no issues, other than that every 2 weeks it goes from 599FOOTLONG to FOOTLONG599
Wow! With that many subs eaten are you as skinny as Jarred from the commercials? I mean before the unpleasantness that happened with him.
