I just had the regular zise peppercorn Prime beef samwich today. It was like $7.50 but i had a $2 coupon, so $5.50 + tax.

peppercorn Prime beef is double portion, according to the sign.

The guy weighed the meat b4 putting it on the samwich.

How many oz is that?

it's about reputation...

your business loses face..? then society starts looking at the other things

as long as they remain competitive with quality, the taste of the sandwiches will fall into place and people will still buy from them.

quiznos, my african american buddy, she was an awesome worker, one of the reasons why some people went to the specific store she worked at. I mean, she could be the general manager any day and still deliver the best customer service. management team hated her because she was colored, told her to hit the road. after she left, no more customers.
they asked her back for help, but didn't hire her. I was like... why'd she help them if they didn't hire her? out of her kind heart, one store still standing because of that.
for that reason quiznos sucks in my eyes. their pricing is terrible compared to subway.

edit: did she go back, hell no

Quiznos is rediculously expensive.

Their business model is to have new sandwhichs onsale so you try them, then the next week when you go in you have to pay full price which is like $10.50 for a half a sub/chips/drink.

You mean they have sales to lure in customers like every business ever?

I don't think their goal was to REPLACE Subway, but to fill a (large) Niche by upgrading the quality and taste of Subway and hoping that a large percentage of Subway's customers use Quizno's as another CHOICE. They are providing an 'upscale' sub experience. That is why you don't usually find Quizno's in ghettos or gas stations like you do subway.

The 'sales' marketing is something that just about every business does. I don't think that tactic is as bad as places who 'Feature' certain items but do not discount them. This lures some stupid people into believing it is 'on sale' then they realize a month later when it isn't featured, that it is still the same price (or even LOWER priced). This tactic works but I find it BS.

Folks, Quizno's is more expensive because they have more meat on their sandwiches. You can get the same at Subway by paying $2 more for extra meat.

I guarantee their profit margin is virtually the same as Subway's.

I prefer Subway, but all this talk about prime rib peppercorn subs is making me hungry. I think I'll do Quiznos for lunch.

Subway is disgusting. I used to think it was good until I got Mr. Goodcents and have never looked back.

I don't know what sandwiches you're getting at both places, but I think just the opposite is true.

I always get a BMT at Subway and it has a TON more meat on it than the couple sandwiches I've tried at Quiznos.

Subway has way more meat on their subs. Quiznos has just enough to get the sauce to not soak into the bread right away.

I was at quiznos last week and had a large steakcheese sandwich. The person that was making my sandwich was probably new and asked another person how much meat to put on and they said 12oz, so i guess 12oz for large
