Look, we all loved the $5 footlong.
It was simple. It was noble. It was from a time when gas cost $2.13 and nobody said “quiet quitting” out loud.
But it’s 2025. Eggs are a luxury item, and your favorite candy bar now costs more than emotional stability.
So yeah, the $5 footlong is toast.
But I’ve got news for you — there’s still a way to walk into Kaysville Subway, spend $6.99, and leave with a full meal and a full heart. Or at least a full stomach. Same difference.
The $6.99 Meal of the Day (Yes, It Exists. Yes, It’s Right In Front of You.)
Every day, one of Subway’s MVPs gets featured as a meal deal:
A 6-inch sub. A drink. Chips or cookies. $6.99. No catch. No app. No weird promo code you saw once on Reddit in 2017.
And yes, it’s printed right there on the sneeze guard.
But based on the number of people who ask me “Do you guys still do that meal thing?” while standing directly in front of it, I can only assume reading is optional now.
- Monday – Cold Cut Combo (The sandwich equivalent of blue jeans. Classic. Indestructible. Always fits.)
- Tuesday – Sweet Onion Chicken Teriyaki (Sticky. Sweet. Slightly unhinged. Like your ex, but delicious.)
- Wednesday – Meatball Marinara (Comes with sauce. And regret. And joy.)
- Thursday – Baja Chipotle Chicken (The sauce is the star. Everything else is just happy to be here.)
- Friday – Tuna (Controversial. Like pineapple on pizza. Or self-checkout.)
- Saturday – B.M.T. (Big. Meaty. Traditional. I will not explain further.)
- Sunday – The Philly (Melty cheese, grilled meat, and no time for your indecision.)
It’s a solid lineup. No weak links. No mystery ingredients.
Just seven days of dependable, aggressively satisfying options — all priced like it’s still pre-pandemic.
Want to Upgrade? Add $3. Boom. Footlong.
Congrats. You just got a full-size meal for under $10.
That’s less than a movie ticket and far more emotionally fulfilling.
Try doing that at one of those trendy “bowl” places where everything tastes like sadness and tahini.
Let’s Talk Cookies. (Because Apparently Some of You Still Need Convincing.)
If you’re the kind of person who says, “Just chips for me,” I get it.
You’re trying to be good. You’re trying to resist temptation. You’re trying to pretend Baked Lays are fun.
But you’re not fooling me.
I’ve watched too many people casually circle back for “just one cookie” like it’s not the exact reason they came in here in the first place.
Just get the two cookies that come with the combo meal. Call it fiber. We’re not here to judge — we’re here to serve baked goods and emotional support.
So Yes. $5 Footlongs Are Gone.
But for $6.99, you still get a sandwich, a drink, a side, and that rare sense of adult competence usually reserved for people who bring their own reusable bags to the grocery store.
Or you can go home and gamble on whatever’s hiding in the back of your fridge, silently judging you.
Your call.
Rick’s Rant:
I’m just gonna say it: people who back into parking spaces are on a power trip.
You’re not in Fast & Furious. This is Bowman’s.
Unless you’re fleeing a heist or operating heavy machinery, I don’t need to watch a three-point turn that takes up two lanes and a small part of my soul.
Just park like the rest of us and go buy your rotisserie chicken in peace.
