just reading in daily mail, irish shoppers in new york flash their passports in stores ,to exempt them from sales tax.any info out there fellow shoppers.
The details on it being a reduction on sales tax may be off, but the circa 10% discount is definatly true and easily available. Just had it confirmed by a work mate beside me....that article is a load of baloney as no such thing exists
just back from NYC - Macy Visitor centre on the mezzaine level. show your passport and get 11% discount. If you are going to do some serious shopping it might be worth checking woodbury common. It is a discount centre with all the main brands. You also get discounts there.
At Woodbury Common you get a sort of coupon book which entitles you to an extra 15% off a lot of stuff. Salespeople will try and trick you into believing it doesn't apply on particualr items but if you hassle them they'll accept it. I got the impression they lose commission if they accept them or gain it if they don't.Anywhere (online) you can get a list of shops where this sort of discount is available?
A few friends going to NY in the new year and I'm sure it'd be appreciated.
The limo was $450...$112.50 each. We were able to go back to the driver with bags as we went along which was handy too.
Call me mad but I think it represented great value.
I agree...thought that myself. Was good to do once but now I know the lie of the land car-rental would be ideal. Great roadYou could have rented a car for $50 which would be even better value. Maybe a bit more stress driving it but can be fun.
