After a good night sleep we woke up slowly and headed for Port Authority bus terminal to take the bus to Woodbury Premium Outlet. We caught the 11.15 bus after an ok breakfast at the terminal. By noon we started our big shopping adventure!!!
It was kind of a community of stores, and ALL brands you can ever imagine; Dior, Nike, Levis, Converse, French Connection, DVF, Gucci, Banana Republic and soooo much more.
We started of getting Jacob equiped with four pair of Levi's for 200 kr each! Then we just kept on going!
We realized that we needed some kind of strategy to even get through the stores we wanted... it was impossible to go through them all. We focused on sportswear; Nike, Adidas and Puma, and after Puma ballerinas and Nike running-skirt for me, we ended up in the Banana Republic store and got stuck... I found a great red/pink dress, a flowery top, a cool rain-coat, a nice casual cardigan and a t-shirt for 1300 SEK!!! Jacob got 5 t-shirts and 2 polo-shirts(piké) for 450!
With some lunch at the food-court we got more energy and got even more stuff at Converse, Esprit, French Connection and more random unknown stores.
At first we planned to take the 18.00 bus back... but, we ended up taking the one that left at 20 instead... And we still did not spend enough time in the Kenneth Cole store... BUT! The last 5 minutes, Jacob did a 5 minute shopping at Esprit(two short-sleves-shirts; 350) , they just fit him perfectly!!!
So, on the bus back we were exhausted!! Back in town we took the subway back to our hotel and got to 'Chipotle', a mexican "fast-food" restaurant, just round the corner. A big Chicken- Burrito with some nice guacamole later we literarly fell asleep amongst our shopping-bags!
A great shopping day in New York!! (ok.. some 40 minutes outside of Manhattan.. but still)
