FL Homeschoolers

Please allow me a moment to step up on my soap box.

Homeschoolers are a very active part of our communities. We pay the same educational taxes, and we follow our state's requirements to be homeschoolers. Generally when there is any type of educational contest it is either stated homeschoolers may participate - or you need only contact to get the okay.

Not for Subway. You see they have this contest going and if you are a homeschooler - your child cannot participate.

The prize involves sports equipment to be donated to the child's school. Now I can completely relate to the fact that Subway doesn't want to donate $5,000 in sports equipment to a family. However - it could state that it must be donated to a local co-op, park, athletic program or something. Why just flat out exclude homeschoolers? I mean my child cannot even go enter with their receipt and get a free book?

Subway has me fuming over this one. I personally refuse to spend another penny at Subway. Why would I want my homeschooler to eat their sandwhich if my homeschooler isn't good enough to enter their contest? 

So - if you are upset like I am - let them know that it is unfair to exclude us. Let your voice be heard! http://www.subway.com/Applications/CustService/frmCustomerService.aspx

Now because I don't believe in offering my opinion without proof - here is their contest: http://www.subwayfreshbuzz.com/kids/contest.aspx
