A large crowd gathered outside of Jimmy Johns in anticipation for $1 sub sandwiches. Jimmy Johns created this deal for Customer Appreciation Day on April 23 from 11-2 p.m. The crowd of students and residents of Des Moines waited along the sidewalk between Jimmy Johns and 24th Street for about 15-30 minutes.
Some students felt that the sandwich wasn't really worth the wait, but they enjoyed a change in their routine. At least it wasn't Hubbell. Other students didn't mind waiting for a discounted sandwich.
"It was worth it for us," said Molly Devnne, a student who waited in line for about 15 minutes.
It wasn't all fun in games waiting in line. One student passed out while waiting for her sandwich. The fire department arrived swiftly and made sure she was OK. She then left with her friends, presumably to her dorm/home or to the doctor's.
In the end, a lot of people enjoyed buying discounted sandwiches despite the long wait. When you're in college, you've got to save money wherever you can.
