  • I must spend about half my time in New York in the hundreds of souvenir shops dotted around the city! The ones in Chinatown tend to give you better value for money, they let you haggle a bit, and I was over the moon to stumble upon this gem. Let me show you around....

    The City Store downtown near the courthouses has a lot of unique stuff there. I posted it on my instagram.

    What’s a good shop for souvenirs where you buy a lot and get a good price? Know the spot and name. Hopefully going in November first time in NY I know Chinatown the spot

      East end 323 most of the stores on Mott Street in Chinatown will give you a good deal, as will a lot of the stores on nearby Mulberry Street. Have a great trip!

      Steve Birks don’t know why it won’t play for you, I’ve just tried on two different devices and it played fine. Internet problem maybe?

      I really wanted the Central Park cup sold at The City Store but it costs 15 dollars. I haven't seen it in any other store. Join me in nydiary77 on Instagram where I post pictures of Manhattan.

      Chimpangel there’s a good chance you’ll find it in Chinatown, I’d be surprised if you can’t. I don’t do Instagram but if I ever do I’ll definitely look you up and follow you, thanks for that.

    Are the souvenirs cheaper in Chinatown? I was comparing the prices at different shops in Times Square for a silver king kong statue I wanted. I found cheaper than the other stores at 10 dollars.

      @stevetaylormynewyorkcity9728  Před 5 lety +1

      Chimpangel it’s always worth going into lots of different stores to compare prices but yes, Chinatown is better value because they tend to let you haggle a bit on the ticket price. They usually give you a discount that you won’t get in midtown 😁

    • @Chimpangel
      @Chimpangel Před 5 lety +1

      I haven't been to Chinatown in twenty years. I plan to get lots of cheap goodies there.

      @stevetaylormynewyorkcity9728  Před 5 lety

      Chimpangel I’m sure you’ll get loads of well priced goodies! The hotel I always use these days is in Chinatown (Hotel 91, featured in one of my vlogs) and I save a small fortune in the souvenir stores around there compared to midtown. My suitcase is always over heavy when I leave ha ha!

    • @Chimpangel
      @Chimpangel Před 5 lety +1

      I want to get the twin towers and freedom tower statues. Maybe st Patrick's cathedral too.

      Chimpangel sorry for not replying sooner, I’ve just received notification of this comment! Yes all of those buildings are readily available in the souvenir stores around Chinatown, I have a good collection now.
