By Joe Gallatin Intro My question was to see how much it would cost for a five dollar footlong from subway would cost everyday for one month. Types of subs There are several types of Subs on the $5 footlong menu. These include: Meatball Marinara Cold Cut Combo Spicy Italian Veggie Delight Black Forest Ham Oven roasted Chicken Breast BLT Tuna Here’s an example of one of the subs, the “Spicy Italian” Source: http://www.survivingthestores.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/subway5-dollar-footlong.jpg In Illinois, We have sales tax of 8.25% So, on a 5 dollar footlong, with sales tax, the total is $5.41. If I worked 5 hours a week, at 8.25/hour, the gross amount of my pay check for one month would be roughly $165.00 If I Got Subway for Lunch everyday for one month, I would be spending a TOTAL of $162.30, meaning I would have to work at least 20 hours a month to satisfy my footlong craving.
