Text your sandwich: Subway gets hip to SMS

Hungry in the Big Apple? Of course you are! Hate standing in lines while a plastic gloved sandwich artist prepares your sandwich and love to text? Of course! Subway’s new “Subway Now” service allows customers to use the SMS functionality of their phone to place an order.

I can hear you already: “I don’t want to type out all the toppings I want!” Right you are. When you sign up for the service (which you must do to use) you’ll enter your favorite sandwich combos. Upon texting “Menu” to the company, they shoot back your favorites. Then you make selections based on that. Two texts and you’ll have your order confirmation and a time to swing by.
