Times are tough and people all over the world are tightening their belts and looking for ways to pinch every penny. Cutting down on Cristal and high-class hookers is a given, but there are some things, like food, that are absolute necessities.
Never fear, Harris Teeter is here to help. There is no such thing as a free lunch, but they have the next best thing in the Sub Club. Every day there is a deal for a half sub for just $2.99. Subway gets all the pub for their $5 footlongs, but Harris Teeter’s deal is better for the tight budget. There are fewer toppings choices, but more meat choices. HT bread is thicker and better tasting in my opinion. And, most importantly, the sandwiches are cheaper. There are even Footlong Fridays when you can get a whole sub (actually bigger than a Subway footlong) for just $4. Added to all that is the Sub Club point system. You get 1 point for every half sub and 2 points for every whole and when you have collected 15 points you can redeem them for a free footlong sub. Cash!
Now this is old hat for most people I know, but my local Harris Teeter has added a new sub to the list. Pictured above is “The Beast” designed by Carolina Panther linebacker John Beason. I saw this when I went for my daily sub a couple hours ago and it looked pretty delicious. In case you cannot read the sign, it says “filled with grilled chicken breast, bacon, onions, provolone cheese with mayonnaise, BBQ sauce, and a dash of salt and pepper on a white sub roll.” Unfortunately I only noticed the sign after I had purchased my sandwich, but you can bet I will be back tomorrow to give “The Beast” a try.
