Heads up, early week tipplers. Sunday nights at Bucktown New American Duchamp, all bottles on the wine list are 50% off. Or, if you'd rather save your dollars for dinner, check out the special, three-course $25 prix fixe on Tuesdays (773-235-6434; reserve online).
On Monday nights, head to Loop chophouse N9ne, where nine whites and nine reds are half-price (purchase of entree required for discount; 312-575-9900; reserve online).
Finally, on Mondays and Wednesdays through April, Lakeview's Chalkboard is offering its entire wine list at half off. "We hope people will take advantage of this," explains chef-owner Gil Langlois. "We know it will not solve any real problems, but as restaurateurs we need to be able to do our part to make dining out affordable" (773-477-7144).
