Shopping in New York

Hire a cheap rental car for shopping in New York

New York is arguably the fashion capital of the United States and every year travelers from around the world book a car rental in New York to shop the wide range to boutiques, specialty shops and designer outlets found here. Some of the most well known shopping streets in the world are located in New York such as Madison Avenue. You can buy anything you could possibly want in New York, from the latest designer clothing to newest kitchen gadget, if you know where to find it!

Duty Free Department Stores

Begin your shopping vacation in New York at the airport. All three of the major airports serving New York have huge shopping centers, and if you only get 2 hours to spend in New York while waiting for a connecting flight perusing the shops will be time well spent. Pick up your New York car hire from JFK airport or Newark International Airport to find the widest variety of cutting-edge shops and restaurants.

In the Streets

Street vendors are common everywhere you go in New York and purchasing from these vendors is generally legitimate. However, this is not the best place to buy your brand name goods like designer handbags or movies as they are likely to be cheap imitations. It is a good place to find things like unique leather goods and a variety of cheap items. You'll need to have cash on hand because most do not accept credit cards.

Designer Outlets

If you're alright to wear last season's fashions (which often aren't sold in other cities for an entire year after they're seen in New York) then you can save some big bucks on designer fashion at New York's Designer Outlets. Two of the most popular are Century 21 and Filene's in Manhattan.  Book a car rental from LaGuardia Airport near Manhattan for your trip to New York's Designer Outlets.
