Question
Dear Native New Yorker,
I am coming for a visit to Manhattan with two girlfriends, and we want to go shopping. Where are the best places to go and find
discount designer handbags and shoes? We'll be in New York for just 1 day so we don't have a lot of time. Any help anyone can give
will be really appreciated.

Answer
For discount designer handbags you'll want to go to Century 21 in Lower Manhattan. Its right across the street from Ground Zero at 22 Cortlandt Street between Church
and Broadway. They often have designer handbags, shoes, clothing, even fragrances for deep discounts.
The store gets very, very crowded, so try to get there early. I got my favorite Fendi bag from there for about 20% less then it was selling for at other stores.
I've also got some good deals on designer clothes at Filene's Basement on 6th Avenue BTW 18th and 19th street.
