Tosans Line Up for a $1 Bargain Lunch at Sub Shop

Until 3 p.m., Jimmy John's is selling its sandwiches for a buck, and lines of people are taking advantage.

At 12:30 p.m. Thursday, the height of the lunch hour, a line of customers stretched well outside for a $1 sub special at , 10919 Blue Mound Rd.

The manager on duty said she wasn't sure how many subs had been sold so far, but the staff had prepped for 1,800 sandwiches to be built by the end of the special offer at 3 p.m.

The shop had 32 workers on the shift, she said, about 10 more than on a normal weekday lunch hour.
