No thanks.

That sums up pretty much every Jimmy John's I've been to as well.

Only a fool would buy or open Quiznos franchise. It's a pyramid scheme designed to reward only the corporate at the expense of the franchisee.

Hell it's hard for me to walk out of an Arby's any more for under $7. That's another place that is pricing itself out of the competition.

Mmmmmm. Potbelly. Not very big sammiches...but tasty ones that are under $5.00.

Plus I can get milkshakes there. With a little cookie stuck on the end of the straw. What other sammich shop can provide that kind of service?

$8 for a sandwich? No thanks. I'd rather make my own for 1/4 of the price, if not less.

Of course the Corporation over charged the shop owners which prevent them from making any profit. One owner even committed suicide because he failed to turn a profit. Anyway, last week I wanted to try their advertised $2 sandwhich and was shock Quiznos closed its door for business. I wasn't really suprise because everything I go there during dinner time I was only custom there.

Our local sub place suprisingly has everyone beat in this town. Always packed with people. Our Subway barely stays in business.

We have all been spoiled by what we want being right around the corner. I typically go to this place in town that is almost 20 minutes away once every week or two just because of the quality. You can have a subway on every corner because they are a volume peddler. You can't have a Jersey Mike's/Lenny's/Quizno's/Jason's Deli/etc. on every corner.

I like their prime rib peppercorn sandwich, minus the grizzle that is.
They are too spendy to be on my regular rotation, and their cheap sandwiches are inferior to Blimpie.
