SMALL BILLS… EXACT CHANGE FOR SUBWAYS AND CABS SAVES FUMBLING AND WAITING FOR CHANGE. ON CANAL STREET THEY FROWN UPON $100.00 BILLS AFTER YOU JUST TALKED THEM DOWN TO $17.00
TIME IS THE MOST PRECIOUS COMMODITY YOU HAVE ON YOUR TRIP. HAVE A PLAN! KNOW WHEN YOUR VENUES ARE OPEN. MANY DISCOUNTS ARE AVAILABLE ONLINE .DOING YOUR HOMEWORK WILL PAY OFF. DON’T EVEN GET OFF THE BUS WITHOUT A PLAN!!!!

SHOPPING BAGS CAN BE CHECKED AT MACY’S CUSTOMER SERVICE [DON’T FORGET TO TIP!]
IF YOU ARE DOING A LOT OF SHOPPING BRING A CANVAS SHOPPING BAG TO CONSOLIDATE YOUR TREASURESTIP: TUCK A TRASH BAG IN YOUR SHOPPING BAG IN CASE YOU GO WILD ON CANAL STREET [I HAVE FILLED SEVERAL] IT COMES IN HANDY IF IT RAINS TOO !
I RECOMMEND YELLOW TAXIS AS YOUR SOURCE OF TRANSPORTATION …UNLESS YOU ARE SUBWAY SAVVY. ON AVERAGE THE MOST A CAB RIDE IN MANHATTAN FROM ONE END TO THE OTHER WOULD COST IS $15.00…[.except in heavy traffic it is 40 cents per minute] REMEMBER YOU CAN HAVE 4 PASSENGERS AND DIVIDE THE COST!
