Subway

There’s precious little around Jane/​Steeles to eat that doesn’t involve flat bread in some fashion or getting in your car and going to Ikea for 75 cent hot dogs which used to be 50 cents. Sure. That’s only 25 cents more but when you order 6 that’s $ 1.50 more. The $ 5 foot long days are no more, either. Sadly. It’s like Dollarama no longer sells everything for a dollar. If 1.3 billion crafty screaming Chinese can’t make things for $ 1 anymore, why should we expect Canadians owning/​operating Subways to hold the line at $ 5 for a foot of meat, veg, and carbs. $ 5 isn’t really all that much, when you think about it. It’s even less when you physically place it next to a foot of meat and carbs. What’s more of an impressive sight, I ask you? An Italian herb and cheese bun dripping with about 14 different sauces and cold cut meat or a $ 5 blue paper bill with a guy who honestly thought the 20^th century was going to belong to Canada. What a dick. Heck, the Canadian government even wanted to debase the currency by replacing the $ 5 bill with another infernal coin. You can’t even buy a beer at a pub for $ 5 anymore. Heck, at one time $ 5 was so much money strip bars charged $ 5 for a beer and that was considered highway robbery but you paid for it because there was no such thing as Internet porn and you really really liked looking at boobs. So much so you’d pay $ 5. For a beer. Like Labatt’s. Yeah. We drunk that stuff back then. And strip bars would reap so much money over charging you for Labatt’s that they could pay dancers a lot of money and strip bars weren’t just make work projects for women with surgical scars and bad skin grafts.
I have $ 5 in my pocket right now and don’t even give a care. You want it?
