1) The quality of the lifts the ones in macy's are insanely quick
2) A box of extra things to try on in the changing room in victoria secret they provided you with a box of bras to try on of your size when you went in. These were all different colours, shapes and styles and encouraged you to try something different. It also meant if you didnt like anything you had brought in to the changing room, you woudnt necessarily have to go back to find something else to try on.
3) More deli type food stores these are such lovely places! and they embrace local produce of a good quality and have such a diverse range of one product who needs supermarkets !

Top ten recommendations for nyc !
1) Invest in a 3 day bus ticket !!! these things are a god send as a) it provides you with transportation, whenever you need it b) you get to see everything of interest you could possibly think of and c) you get to know little quirks of information that you wouldnt get if you were walking on your owm
2) Go up rockafella rather than empire state if you go up rockafella you are able to see the empire state and central park ! you get a ful view of manhatten and parts of new jersey and brooklyn its far better this way
3) Go up rockafella (in the winter) around 4:15 pm if you go up at this time you get to see the skyline during the day, at dusk and when its dark ! we got some amazing pictures of the sunset and it looks absolutely beautiful
4) Ask the locals on the best places to eat that arent so touristy we were introduced two fantastic little places that werent packed with tourists so we got to experience american culture at its best and meet some lovely people in the process
5) Befriend a someone in a small restaurant and keep going back there !they appreciate your loyalty and may even treat you to a few extras for free :)
6) Go to the rodeo if you have the opportunity it is a fantastic experience very fun and even if you dont stay for all of it you will have had an eventful and suprising evening
7) Go and see a sports match of some sort we went to see the knicks and like the rodeo you have to experience the american way of supporting. you my even get to see a cheesy proposal on the big screen !
8) Talk to the locals and see whether their are any events going on these wont be plagued by tourists and again you will get to experience something different we found out about the rodeo through talking to poilcemen
9) Plan your days it seems so obvious but we decided what we wanted to get done each day and then if we had time to spare would add things on as we went so we made sure we made the most of things. Its a small city however there is so much to do
10) finally go to central Park its amazing and i wish i had spent longer there to get a look around the whole thing. Even when it is absolutely freezing it was beautiful
