Subway..

Call me cheap, I know I am, and call me a winging pom (my mum was english):

As I do almost every day of the week, today I went on my 10 minute walk to the local Subway store to get a Veggie Delight. The reason I eat Veggie Delights and not some other sandwich, is simply because:

1. it tastes good (with south western dressing of course), and
2. I know whats in it – no processed meat for example (no I’m not vegetarian)

Anyway, at the end of the subway production line – when it came to pay, I was asked to cough up an extra 50c. Before yesterday the price was $3.45 and today it was $3.95 . That’s a 15% increase!

How the hell does this work? Seriously? You can’t say its inflation, transport costs (oil) or wage increases, because they didn’t increase the price of any of the other subway sandwich.
