Cheapskate's guide: Hunter's lunch special

The sub-$10 lunch does exist after all, at least in Southie on Tuesdays.

Zoom in: Hunter's Kitchen and Bar sells its sandwiches for half off on Tuesdays, whether you eat in person or order takeout.

What I got: I got a spicy fried chicken sandwich with potato salad on the side (there's a non-spicy option too).

Be smart: Don't be that guy who gets stingy on the tip.

Zoom out: There are other cheap lunch options around Boston.

Just a few blocks from Hunter's, Lincoln Tavern offers $1 oysters and shrimp every Tuesday from 10am-10pm.
Nothing beats Penguin Pizza's lunch special in Mission Hill, now $5.99 with a drink at the bar.
