Subway
is the official restaurant for the new Avengers movie which opens on May
1st.
The
limited edition cups are coded with a chance to win movie tickets and other
prizes. If you win subs for life they'll
send you a check for $22,781.00. I
wonder how they calculated that.
They
are also selling "Hulk" Doritos with prize codes, and there will be
additional tie-ins onsite, online, in social and on tv.
So? Have you picked up your cup? Will you?
And what about the movie? Will
you go?

I fully intend to see the movie as I'm a big Marvel enthusiast and love the individual characters and want to see how well they meld together. Subway's campaign isn't really an enticement to me, however. I haven't picked up a cup though I just may in hopes of winning the money, which I will definitely not use to buy sandwiches.
I can't wait for the movie to come out, and will definitely be watching it. Personally, I'm not a fan of Subway and haven't ate there in ages. I can see how this type of campaign could attract more customers and sales, but it isn't making me go buy a five dollar foot long and a 30oz soda for lunch today. Seems as if Subway is trying to emulate McDonald's very successful Monopoly campaign..

As Andrew mentioned in his comment, I find this to be extremely similar to McDonald’s hugely successful Monopoly contest/campaign. However, I don’t think Subway will increase its traffic and sales just because it is partnering with Avengers. I think that instead, it will be most successful with increasing sales amongst existing consumers.
