It is a lot better than I'm used to for sure. I really like that clothes are untaxed. That being said, I didn't actually shop; I was stuck in plane travel until 3p!
ONLINE SHOPPING is the MECCA of shopping IMO. NYC can't compete . I find that most stores stock the same items with limited choices,,,not so online where the sky is the limit.
I hardly every buy anything besides cologne in NYC.
Essentials - Walmart.com- GOD BLESS WALMART. I haven't shopped at a Duane Greed for over 10 years now.
Ebay for WHATEVER you need.
If you take away Saks Bloomies and Macy's shopping in NYC is no better than going to your local "all in one' mall...coach nike addidas urban outfitters....etc. All the typical crap you can find in the heartland is right here. Better to buy online and avoid tax.....and flakey sales staff.
