Christmas is right around the corner, but there is still time to plan some exciting holidays!
Why not take a trip to New York and celebrate the end of the year in the city that never sleeps? When you are in New York, you must do some shopping and come back with gifts your friends and family will be excited about!
In her podcast for Cheapflights.co.uk, Lindsey Kelk, author of I Heart New York, shares her best tips on how to make the most of your shopping in New York and where to find the best bargains.
If you have never been to New York, our insider Lindsey Kelk advises visitors to wear comfortable shoes especially if you go to Fifth Avenue, a really busy street packed with great-to-find unique pieces. Macy’s on 34th Street and the Toys“R”Us store in Times Square are in Lindsey’s top 5 stores you need to check out.
If you’re looking for good deals, Bloomingdale’s on Third Avenue offers a 10 per cent discount on everything for foreign visitors. Getting the discount is the simplest thing in the world: all you need to do is show your passport!
Another good tip is to check websites such as dailycandy.com to know about the sample sales before you leave for your holidays.
Make sure you bring (or buy) warm clothes; the snow may be waiting for you!
