To subvert grumpy monarchs, angry medieval youths scrawled condiment graffiti such as "Fran Tanner has plague" or "the king is a jerk" inside their sandwiches. Dig beneath lettuce to bring history to light with today's Groupon: for $6, you’ll get a regular-size combo meal, containing a sub, chips, and drink, at Jersey Mike’s Subs (up to an $11.20 value, with tax included). This Groupon is redeemable at the Northridge and West Hollywood locations.

Serving savory subs since 1956, the friendly bread bookenders at Jersey Mike’s employ fresh ingredients to gift diners with an extensive menu of subs (up to a $7.95 value) assembled directly before eager mouths. Sink your ivories into cold subs such as the Jersey Shore's Favorite, where generous slices of provolone, ham, and capicola arrive layered with onions, lettuce, tomatoes, vinegar, and a sprinkling of oil and spices. Chilly diners dissatisfied with standard whole-wheat sleeping bags can warm up next to hot subs such as the Big Kahuna cheese steak or the chicken parm's infusion of melted provolone, tomato sauce, and parmesan. The friendly sandwich sculptors will also happily customize any 'wich to your whims, offering a host of vegetarian options. The regular-size combo meal comes with chips and a drink ($2.25), ensuring that subs don't get lonely on their digestive trek.
