Local Subways Do Not Follow National Ads

Our local Subway do not follow the national ads for Subway. After recieving an email about a promotion for $5 foot longs special we found that none of the Subways we visited in Kennewick was honoring that ad. We give up on Subway

Followup on my Earlier Post

Subways national office response is that all stores are locally owned and are not obligated to follow national ads or promotions. My advice is to ignore any Subway ads or coupons you get and call before you waste your gas going to a store and finding out they are not following a national ad you’re expecting. As for me and my family we refuse to buy any products from national franchise stores that do not honor ads by that franchise.

Very irritating!

Yes, I've also found this particular problem with Quizno's as well. I do believe at the end of these ad's they usually end with (in a softer less noticable voice ughh)something to the effect of "In participating stores only!" But it's very misleading! Why even bother doing an adversitement if the stores do not have to abide by it? I do understand they're locally owned, however you think the owners would honor these ads to get more business! Wouldn't it draw more people to you? I don't get it!

Better Experience, way better sub

Go to Blimpie inside Wal-Mart, $5 footlongs and even better $5 6" subs with chips and drink. Way fresher product and the best bread by far.
