Do You Know What Montana's Most Overpriced Sandwich Shop Is?

The world owes a lot to a very focused card player named John Montagu.

Montana Is Home To 5 Of The 6 Most Overpriced Sandwich Chains

While the number one chain has the most locations in Montana, there are plenty of other places to overpay for a sandwich under the Big Sky says food website Eat This, Not That!.

Here are numbers 6 through 5:

• 6. Potbelly
• 5. Jersey Mike's Subs
• 4. Jimmy John's

The number one place has many customers longing for an old promotion that ensured you got a meal for $5.

Subway, which was once home to the $5-foot-long, is now considered overpriced.

While we shouldn't expect the price of a sandwich to cost the same as it did 15 years ago, some customers are shocked that they are now paying up to $21 for that same sandwich, according to Eat This, Not That!

While the prices might have increased, we haven't decreased in eating there; in fact, Subway is ranked as Montana's favorite fast food restaurant.
