I saw the "Big SomethingOrOther", saw that it was $4.95, and ordered it without even thinking that $4.95 of sandwich in Austin was going to be huge compared to $4.95 of sandwich in Santa Clara.
Ah. I thought your "3 feet" reference might be a reference to Ben Franklin's request for a 3-penny loaf upon his arrival in Philadelphia from Boston...
"Then I walked up the street, gazing about till near the market-house I met a boy with bread. I had made many a meal on bread, and, inquiring where he got it, I went immediately to the baker’s he directed me to, in Secondstreet, and ask’d for bisket, intending such as we had in Boston; but they, it seems, were not made in Philadelphia. Then I asked for a three-penny loaf, and was told they had none such. So not considering or knowing the difference of money, and the greater cheapness nor the names of his bread, I made him give me three-penny worth of any sort. He gave me, accordingly, three great puffy rolls. I was surpriz’d at the quantity, but took it, and, having no room in my pockets, walk’d off with a roll under each arm, and eating the other.
