It’s not exactly free, but most T stations have small parking lots that charge ~$5 to park all day. And, depending on which one you park at (I used to to do this at Eliot station on the green line a lot), you can often skip paying and no one will ticket you. And if they do, it only costs $1 over the original rate (at least it used to).

T station as in train station? Is it for sure $5? Where do I find that?

Here's the list, just make sure you only park in the garages that are listed as "Yes" for Overnight Parking: https://www.mbta.com/parking/stations-and-rates

Yes, “the T” is what people call the subway :) (and occasionally other transit within the MBTA)

According to the link bobby_j_canada posted below, at Eliot station it’s $9 on weekdays now, and $3 on weekends.
