Cheap Lunch Alert! $9 Sandwiches for 67 Cents at Swich

The CEO of Swich, John Gargiulo, has hipped us to a serious lunch special tomorrow at his sleek and tasty pressed sandwich shop on Eighth Avenue between 15th & 16th. All their "Swiches" and "Deconstructeds" will be sold for $.67 cents to commemorate the anniversary of the stock market crash of 1929. Gargiulo writes: "It's a crappy time for everyone out there and we thought we'd cheer NYC up! I personally would take a train for a .67 cent sandwich and I imagine many Gothamist readers would too (wait, I am a Gothamist reader). We're doing it from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. tomorrow (Wednesday) and it is sure to be a madhouse (it is between 12-1 already!)" So to beat the madhouse you'll probably want to start lining up tonight—an inconsequential sacrifice for delicious, steeply discounted panini.

#1, it wasn't in Brooklyn it was Patsy's in East Harlem for their 75th anniversary.

There will be a stampede for sure tomorrow.

As a "Gothamist", I personally love blatant advertising. But can we get a few more spreads of Palin's wardrobes?

Delicious!

Didn't a famous Brooklyn pizza place recently for a day roll back their prices to historical amounts and end up needing police assistance to prevent customers from rioting when the line was cut off?
