I was given a coupon for a free sandwich at Subway today and I was very excited. However, I failed to read the size 2 font at the bottom of the coupon that stated, "Must see the Chase representitive outside and completely participate in order to recieve free sandwich." As I steped up to a thirty-something looking, well-dressed man, I realized he was a henchman of the devil. "Are you here for the free sandwich? Fill these out." I look down to see not one, but three seperate credit card applications. I sit down with the applications in hand, and ponder the benefits for one free sandwich combo meal, which is worth 5 dollars, vs a lifetime of debt. I decided that the free combo meal was not worth, a. my time, b. my credit, and c. my soul. I walked back to the man in black and handed my unfinished applications back to him, "Sorry, it's actually not worth my time or credit history to apply for 3 different credit cards." As I walked away I think I saw a little tear form in the corner of his eye as he saw one soul escape his clutches. However, it was short lived as college students poured in the door and grabbed the applications, just so they could get one free sandwich.
