I feel like a lot of places are like this. I went to a Peets Coffee last week and even though it didn't smell bad while I was in there, the whole rest of the day I smelled like burnt coffee. It was weird and gross.

CVS also has those yucky grey carpets. They're like old outdoor porch carpeting. You'd think that they would come up with a new look, because it makes the pharmacies look and feel dirty even if they aren't.

Wow. When a distinctive Subway smell is noticeable in a GIANT, that's something really disturbing!

Target always smells like popcorn and plastic.


You nailed that.

Having grown up eating real subs, I hate Subway, and to me it smells like despair.

It might be the musty smell left over from when Jared Fogel visited the Subway store and got off to porn in the back room.

The Subway near me smells so much that the store next door to it also has that yeasty/bready smell!
