Blimpie: Home of the Scamwich Artist?

12/3/08 at 12:29 PM

One of the “gentlemen” from the Foggy Monocle hit his local Blimpie and was aghast to discover that the subs are a smidge more expensive than the $5 foot-longs at Subway. From the IM conversation that ensued:

SubwayDiner: what was her reasoning behind the absurd price of the meal?
ScammedMan: there was no reasoning
ScammedMan: except that it was written on the board
ScammedMan: it was written 999
ScammedMan: i thought that was the calorie count
ScammedMan: not the goddamn price!
SubwayDiner: well sure. 999 calaroies is totally acceptable

Mayor Bloomberg, see what you have wrought?
