$5 Dollar Showdown!

The jingle for "$5 Footlong" has likely been running through your head nonstop for several months now.

Subway was genius when they started this promotion last year and now every major "fast casual/sandwich restaurant" has followed their lead. If you have watched TV lately you have noticed that everyone is promoting a price point, many of which are meals for $5.

This is what's currently happening:

Subway $5 Footlong
Quizno's "Under" $5 Sandwiches
Domino's $4.99 Subs
Arby's 4 for $5
Moe's Joey Jr. Combo for $4.99

All of these options clearly present a problem - which restaurant has the best $5 deal?

Most of the options are sandwiches, however Moe's recent plunge to offer menu prices at $5 makes things much more interesting. Not to mention Domino's latest attempt to shut down Subway by claiming their oven toasted sandwich beat Subway's 2 to 1 in a national taste test has to make everyone wonder how good this sandwich actually is.

I've been debating it and wrestling over this for quite some time....lots of $5 choices....but where do you go?

It's time to get dedicated to the higher cause and have a $5 Showdown.

Over the next week I will be journeying to the unknown and will eat every $5 meal I can get my hands on. It should be interesting and I'll be sharing with all of you full details of my experiences. About a week from now we should know who has the tastiest, most satisfying, $5 meal out there.

Let the showdown begin! (let me know if I'm missing any restaurants)
