New York Shopping Home

Has anyone done this? How much might it cost and what about customs?

Is it just you going?
If your going with someone else then maybe take two big suitcases and take as little as possible!
I went with 3 other people and took medium sized suitcases and then 2 of them shared a big one. And in the big one we put a large weekend bag type of thing and coming home we filled that up with stuff and the one of the people who shared had that as their case at the aiport.

Otherwise take as larger handluggage as you can (Going By The Hand Luggage Guide Line Size) And pack as much as you can into their some places they allow you to take a laoptop bag & hand luggage so if you take a laptop you can pack some small things into that.

I'm not sure on shipping prices, but the larger it is the more expensive so if you have to ship then i'd suggest ship the smaller things.

Finding stable renters can be difficult, especially in New York area. Have a home in Mt. Vernon, NY that is close to train station by nice shopping center and highway. You can easily get into NYC, New Jersey or Connecticut. I don't want any ripoff or scam artist.

It is vital I find a plant shop in nyc that sells organic planting seeds.

Wow so far all the other gardeners who have answered this so far are not aware that there are indeed USDA certified organic seeds. There are they are from parent plants grown out on organic farms.

The best place to get such seeds in mail order. my favorite companies for seeds are http://www.fedcoseed.com http://www.johnnysseeds.com, http://www.rareseeds.com, http://www.seedsavers.org.

All of these places have both organic and conventionally grown seed as well as lots of heirloom (heritage or open pollinated) seed

has anybody any tips/experiences of christmas shopping in new york, where to go exactly. im from England and would like to bring my 9 year old daughter christmas shopping in NY for a long weekend maybe 4 days. Is there a hamleys toy shop there (and was that the shop used in home alone, Duncan's toy chest). ive been to hamleys in London and it was superb, any advise or comments would be most appreciated thanks

You should go to F.A.O. Schwartz. (That's the store that was featured in Home Alone. You might also recognize it from the movie Big.) It's kind of expensive, but fun, and kids are allowed to play with a lot of the toys on display.

If your daughter is nine, you might also want to go by the American Girl store on 49th St. and 5th Avenue. It's huge--we're talking three or four floors full of dolls, doll clothes, and accessories. They have kid-size clothes to match the dolls' outfits too. There is even a doll salon in the store where you can have them change the doll's hair style, there's a doll hospital, and there's a cafe, all inside the store.

Then we have the usual chain stores: Toys 'R Us and Kay-Bee Toys. I warn you: Right before Christmas, all these stores are going to be madhouses. Try to come at least a week before Christmas, if not sooner. And bundle up. It'll be cold.

P.S. The big Toys 'R Us in Times Square has a giant Ferris wheel right in the store that I'm sure your daughter would love. I took my nephew on it when he was about 7 or 8 and we had a great time.
