>>22081671
Even that's too high of an estimate. There's 11 slices of cheese in that pack so unless you're using 3-4 slices per sandwich, you've going to have some leftover for even more sandwiches. Same thing for the mayo, mustard, bread, lettuce, and onion.

I think this one is an L take, if you're replacing Subway you need to shell out a little more money and buy actual sub loaves
Still going to be cheaper in the end but substituting a Hero for two slices of commercial sandwich bread is just wrong

No.

I'm just eyeing that shit on the right and I've got it calculated at $18-$21. $3 for the cheese, $6 for the turkey, $2 for that loaf of bread. 99 cents for the lettuce, same for the onion and tomato, I'll say $4 for the mayo and $2 for the mustard.
Unless he bought all that shit at a convenience store in a coastal resort town it's twenty bucks. AND you're getting 8 sandwiches out of it and condiments for a month.

I know it's bait but I wanted to illustrate just why.

What does this mean? I keep seeing it and don't understand the reference. That guy's a sound mixer? And he likes sandwiches?
Sorry, I guess I missed the week that was a thing.
>>
>>22082259
No, it would cost far less than the Subway sandwich if he were doing that. There's nowhere that stuff would be $38 except maybe Whole Foods, and none of that shit in the photo came from there. Do they have grocery stores in airports? That's the only other place besides stadiums and festivals where there seems to be a completely different system of monetary value.
>>
>>22081601
right side can make at least 3 samwiches.
a whole wheel of cheese might be cheaper, $ per slice. also buying a roll of ham would be cheaper per samwich portion too.

also subuway don't use whole wheat sliced bread?
>>
>>22081660
its ai you fucking idiot
>>
Stuff on right would absolutely cost me $38. I would never buy sliced cheese or meats like that because the price is retarded. Lettuce is $5 alone. Tomato would be $3-4 depending on time of year.
Since his intention was to be a fucking retard he should have included a whole turkey.

That's about 10 sandwiches though.

So $3.86 per sandwich

Usually when I'm in the mood for sandwiches is the only time I buy sandwiches ingredients at the grocery store, it's enough to eat 7 sandwiches which is what I want. So I eat 7 sandwiches. I don't want one little gay subway sandwich. Bitch, I work for a living.
>>
I ran the numbers on the items on the right with my local Kroger and it came up to approximately 23-24 dollars depending on the size of the tomato and onion

Avocado prices skyrocketed the last few weeks. Need to read some journals or something but basically went from .75-1.00 for a Haas to 2.00 each for the same avocado.
I blame World Cup memers discovering Avocados after decades of EU Repression or weather, the winter was really variable so yields are probably different, that being said I'm in the Northeast so far from the Avocado regions of the country.

You could just get another type of lunch meat and another veg and still easily have it be cheaper while having some variety. If the idea of eating more than one sandwich in a week repulses you then yeah don't bother.

Are you really this retarded?
Example: a few years ago, I combined several coupons to get deli-sliced ham for just $1.75/lb at a certain chain, down from $8/lb. We bought 2 or 3 lbs, I don't remember. That's a lot of ham. But between the three of us, we used it up within a few weeks while still eating a varied diet and not eating the same sandwich over and over again.
Chiffonade some ham for omelettes or to cook into a cream sauce for pasta.
Use as a topping for pizza. Even frozen pizza if you don't want to make your own.
Mix with cabbage, butter and onion into some mash to make bullshit colcannon. Make ham dip. Crisp fry some ham for salad mixins or as a topping to pea soup. Deep fry some ham and potato croquettes. Make holes in slices of ham and place them on your face to reenact Silence of the Hams.
And sandwiches. Make ham, pear and brie sandwiches. Make jambon beurre. Make ham and cheese toasties. Make ham salad. Make ham and mustard. Make grilled cheese and ham with tomato soup. Make biscuits with jelly (yes, it's a thing; I was grossed out at the idea but it's actually quite good). Etc etc etc
You'd only
>Eat the same sandwich 3 times a day for weeks
if you're creatively and culinarily bankrupt and/or legitimately retarded. Cold cuts are an ingredient like any other. They're not the Millennium Falcon LEGO kit, where they can only be used to build one thing and that one thing alone. They're barely any different than an onion or tomato.

No matter how shitty the deli section of your grocery store is, the bread is going to be better than Subway's, so this will always be an improvement for a lower price even if you just make one sandwich.

>>
>>22084451
McD's can be cheaper but it wouldn't be if your focus was strictly on budget and not variety and taste in addition to health. It's still not cheaper in the long run that's for sure.
>>
>>22081671
You can get a loaf of french bread for like 1.50 that is like 2 feet long and get two foot longs from it. That is actually closer to what subway sells.

And you can even buy the subway sauces now at the store, so you can literally build the exact sandwiches at home now.

Not sure where they get their shit ass pickles from though, store bought ones are way better.
>>
>>22082916
Thats filling for me.
>>
>>22084060
You can freeze things you know. The fresh veg might not take it well, but bread, meat and cheese freeze perfectly fine. And for the bread you can literally just bake your own fresh sub daily with a small recipe that yields 1 sub. Or make 4 and freeze 3 for efficiency.

And deli meat lasts for months anyway. Cheese technically lasts, but I get it - it molds kinda quick in the fridge. Just portion it as you need it - freeze the parts for later, keep only a few slices free in the fridge.

Also deli meat can easily be cut up and used in salads. Those cheese deli squares can be further squared for charcuterie too.
