Pinching pennies 'til payday? Or just looking for something new this lunch hour? Milwaukee Downtown, BID #21, presents "The $5 Lunch Challenge."

This week we asked Fernando, a Milwaukee Downtown Public Service Ambassador, to find lunch for under $5. Is it possible? And how. Check out this week's challenge winner.

Elliott's Deli Milwaukee Center's Bagel Melts
111 E. Kilbourn St.

Elliott's Deli Milwaukee Center has so many lunch choices under $5, we had to narrow it down to one menu item.

The lunch counter, located in the Milwaukee Center, serves up fresh deli meats with melted cheese atop a hearty bagel for a great lunch-on-the-go.

For just $4, you get your choice of turkey and Swiss, ham and Swiss, tuna and cheddar or other combos with money to spare for chips and a soda.

The great thing about this place is that the secret isn't quite out of the bag yet. There are usually no lines and the service is quick.

Call (414) 272-3354 for more information.
