This deal is hot, especially since Firehouse Subs doesn’t offer many deals. Its subs are delicious, but they just don’t offer many coupons or discounts. (You even have to make a purchase, when redeeming rewards in its loyalty program.) As a result, this is one of the best deals you’ll find at the popular sub shop. As bargain hunters, we’ll give them a pass, as the shop uses premium meats and cheeses. The subs are really, really good!

Each day, get a medium sub for just $5.55 at participating locations: Sunday – Italian; Monday – Firehouse Meatball; Tuesday – Smoked Turkey Breast; Wednesday – Hook & Ladder; Thursday – Virginia Honey Ham; Friday – Tuna; Saturday – Sweet & Spicy Meatball. Any extras, including double meat, will cost extra.

Plus, if you need some extra buckets for storage, the garage or household chores, they sell their empty red pickle buckets for just $2 — click here. All of the proceeds go to charity.
