National Sandwich Day usually lands on November 3, but Subway moved its celebration up to Tuesday, October 27 this year and stretched the savings out for nearly two weeks. Rewards members can get a second footlong free, knocking roughly $8 to $10 off a two-sub order, as long as they avoid a few excluded subs.

Here’s what you’ll need to know to cash in on this offer:

How to Get a Free Footlong at Subway

Subway is offering a free footlong when you buy one through this Subway BOGO, running October 27 through November 8, 2026. A few rules decide whether it works at checkout.

Subway Rewards is free to join. Log in, apply the offer from the My Rewards section and order in the Subway app or on the website, since in-store orders don’t qualify. The free sub must be of equal or lesser price, and Fresh Fit, Deli Faves, 5 Meat Italian and Big Hot Pastrami subs are excluded. It’s limited to one use per account for the entire promotion, so save it for two of your pricier footlongs.

This deal has earned a +252 deal score with 39 comments and nearly 30,000 views. Community member shan09876 explained that franchisees choose whether to accept app deals, so another nearby location may honor it if yours won’t. BoogieGreen got an error despite having two footlongs in the cart, so confirm the discount applied before paying.

Subway runs rewards offers like this several times a year. Set up a Deal Alert for “Subway” and we’ll notify you the next time one gets posted.
