I noticed my old subway sandwhiches in the fridge don't keep well. I
have thought that I should freeze them. Does anyone know if lettuce
will spoil when it is frozen?

If, by spoil, you mean bacterial spoilage, no it won't. But, something else
will happen, which will not be unsafe to eat. I think you should try
freezing it and find out through experimentation.

When you freeze letuce it becomes something distinctly not letuce. The
reason it does not last in the fridge is that they cut it with a metal
blade. For some reason that is bad. Dont ask me why because I dont know.
Anyway the best thing would be to see if you could get 6 inches with the
veggies on and 6 with them off or on the side.

Lettuce gets mushy when it freezes because the cells break down. The
lettuce becomes the consistency of, well, forgive me here, snot.

It won't spoil, it just turns into slime.

Since the chief charm of a Subway sanwich is that it is fresh, why
bother?

Or, remove the lettuce before freezing. I believe I saw a link about how to
do that, but I can't locate it at the moment. I recall that it requires
special lettuce tweezers, as well as a tool similar to a speculum, for
opening up the top of the bread.

Neither lettuce nor tomatoes freeze well. Some sandwich meat doesn't
either. Why are you buying more than you can consume at one time?
Sandwiches are SO MUCH better when they are fresh.

I think at least some Subway stores offer weekly twofer specials. For
someone who doesn't cook and is on a tight budget or just terminally
frugal, it can be quite an incentive to "stock up".

One guy I used to work with would get two big subs every Tuesday after
work, eat one for supper that night and bring the other in for lunch the
next day. He retired early, as I recall, though I don't know how big a
part his Subway twofer savings played in that.

Yes!
