From my observation that leads to lower prices on stuff at least compared to the west. Of course I don't know what the average purchasing power is in Vietnam so 4 bucks there could be a steeper price to pay than it is here in the states.

Youd have a point if I was earning a Vietnamese salary but westerners generally dont here.

But yes, you can get nicer food cheaper than that.

We get Subway coupons in the mail every month. Three footlongs for $19 or two for $13 are the best.
I can't imagine ever paying full price for their food.

That's only good if your subway accepts the coupons. Every Subway within a 10-mile radius of me refuses to accept them (same with the in-app deals)

I mean yeah footlings are expensive. Footlongs on the other hand... I just use the app which has at the very least a 20% off coupon (of any sandwich) and get a footlong and chips for about $11. Gotta save money since Hawaii is expensive :<

Food prices in general are really shocking imo. Last time I went to Burger King, two combos and an extra regular cheeseburger (or maybe two?) was like $45.

Depends on the person. I take home about $7k on a normal month and have no rent to pay. Thats above average for a westerner here, but westerners earn way more on average than locals.

Also, McDonalds is considered a luxury for a lot of people here. Its easy to get more local food (which is usually better) for a dollar or two.

there is literally not a single footlong sub on the menu that costs over $11.89 here, and even checking major cities, i'm seeing $12.89 for the premium 1/2lb meat signature subs
some classic subs run as low as $7.49 here for a footlong, and they routinely do BOGO deals

where tf you live that they average $15?

edit: the only place i've seen so far w/ a footlong that costs over $15 at all is NYC, and that's only the premium 1/2 lb of meat sub (the monster)

everything else is in the neighborhood of $10 or less

even the signature series are still around $10

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/d/d4386b13.png

So I decided to check the prices, since it's been a few years, and if TC was looking at doordash, that might explain the higher price;

From the subway app, my go-to (Chicken Bacon Ranch) is $11.29
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/a/a83b709c.png
From Doordash (choosing Pickup), the same sub comes up to $15.48 ($22.11 you do delivery and add in the fees, but we are sticking to pickup for a fair comparison)
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/e/ec7b37aa.png

The Beast is a bit higher on the subway app at $13.69, but surprisingly the same price as the Chicken on doordash at $15.48

The classic footlongs are still reasonably priced. The subway series footlongs jack up everything with not much extra value. You might get a little extra cheese but that's about it.

Not sure if we even have a Subway here anymore, to many pizza places with better subs around here. Not sure any of them that i frequent are more than like 10 or 11 for a full size sub either so that price is insane.

You literally quoted the point and then ignored it. McDonalds is considered a luxury here (despite not being very good). It's not typical fast food. There are much cheaper options for less than a dollar.

Where are you? San Francisco? New York? They are $10 in St. Louis. Besides, Subway is garbage, their sugar bread is disgusting, and they dont use enough meat and cheese, wouldnt be worth it even if they still had $5 footlongs.
