No More Subway Stamps

By Chris on June 3rd, 2005

Some of you may have heard about this, but for the rest…Subway is doing away with their Sub Club

Ever since the 1980s, Subway customers have received a stamp for every six-inch sandwich purchased (two stamps for a foot-long); filling up a Sub Club card with the requisite number of stamps entitles the customer to a free sandwich. Alas, by the end of September 2005 the Sub Club will be no more, another victim of technology which makes counterfeiting coupons and proof-of-purchase stamps on home computer equipment all too easy.

doesn’t bother me too much. when they started requiring the purchase of a drink, I stopped collecting the stamps. They just need to make a better way to track the stuff i guess.

I always bought two cookies in place of the drink. I’m surprised that they let me do that, since I bet it was cheaper for them to give away drinks as opposed to cookies…

Man! I have a full card in my wallet! That’s no fair! Maybe I can still redeem it this coming weekend. If not, I’ll just walk out! haha I liked it better when it was just a free sub and you didn’t have to buy a drink b/c I drink water. That change happened while I was overseas. I figured that was to help curb people stealing them. Guess it didn’t work.

You have until Sep or Oct to redeem them. I gotta find all my stamps. They’re scattered everywhere - car, work, home…

Oh well, just another reason to go to Quizno’s instead, if we needed one

alternative to via : My site is great, <a href=" «link» ">female viagra</a>, >:[,
paulc : cool snow
Chris : Actually, not so much. Maybe sometime this weekend I'll post something. Just not in the mood.
Paul C. : Five days w/o a blog? you feeling well?
Bryan : I posted the video below, btw... Though I do love being branded Guest 4405... tiz catchy
Guest_4405 : «link» Chris I thought you'd enjoy this lol
Scott : Thanks for the chart and the info. I saw something on Sony's site that let you plug in the games name and it would tell if it would play or not or if it would play with limitations. Supposedly all the kids games will play but, with all the "good" reports on the wii I think we are going with that.
Bryan : «link» this chart is your friend,makesurey oupick the right model carefully...
Bryan : Scott, only the original 20gb and 60gb PS3 models that launched have the Emotion Engine in them and are 100% backwards compatible with PSX and PS2 games. The 40gb, 80gb, and new 60gb won't play many of your earlier games. Sony killed the EE to cut down on the retail price.
Scott : Chris as far as the turn around time it was about a month.
Scott : Thanks fo rall the input. I didn't want to go strictly by the respective sites forums...I was thinking about the PS3 mainly because of teh blue ray player and it will play the PS1 and PS2 games. I woudln't have to add another game to my switch...
Paul C. : oops. Only reason I would buy a PS3 would be for the cheap blueray player...or to pay Gran Tourismo
Paul C. : Only reason
Paul C. : i haven't had any problems with my wii...or my mother in laws, brother in laws, or friends. the other way to look at it - maybe more people use their wiis so they experience more things an unused console won't have any problems!
Bryan : The Wii will often freeze during firmware updates if you have a weak wireless connection. It's happened to me before. Other than that, I haven't had any problems with my Wii, either. It's good for younger kids and "causal" gamers, or people that do a lot of social things. The 360 is better for older kids and hardcore fps and rpg fans.
Robin : Chris: I totally agree with you on the eggs, cheese, bacon and bread..I would add some homemade strawberry jelly or mayonnaise and then be set for life except for the cholesterol concerns.
Chris : Hmm...I haven't had either of those problems for what it's worth. Did the things you read say anything about how quick and easy it was to get the problem solved?
Scott : I think freezing up was the biggest and not booting up was the other. It's been a week so I don't remember the problems exactly, just that the wii had more/newer complaints than the other two systems
Chris : Jez: Eggs, cheese, bacon and bread and I'm set for life...
Chris : Scott: I haven't had any problems with my Wii. Love it, so much fun in a group setting. Haven't heard of any probs...wonder what trouble they are having
Jez : Oh, and eggs are fantastic. Eggs and potatoes are two of the greatest foods ever!! They can be used in so many ways!
Jez : I have both a Wii and 360. Really like both of them. The Wii has more games for kids and casual gamers. It also has more party style games. For a serious fps or rpg type gamer, I'd say 360.
Scott : On another note...any one have a wii and if so any troubles with it? Might get one ofr the kids for Christmas, but what I've read on Nintendo's site compared to what I've read on Sony's site for teh PS3 and Microsoft's site for the 360 I'm not sure I want one...
Scott : Yes sorry haven't checked the site in a few days...Paintball on 11/29 at 10am the usual place...I have some scrap wood for more bunkers/bunker repairs too...Hint!
Chris : Woohoo!
Jez : See we signed Daniel Orton? Already rated a top 10 recruiting class for next year, and it's still early recruiting!!
Chris : Scott, any word on that?
Chris : Yep, last I heard there was a possibility for a game towards the end of November. I'll keep you posted.
David : Did I hear paintball in the future awhile back?
