http://www.bedbathandbeyond.com When going through the hell of moving, at least one stop at this brilliant superstore is obligatory. This is where college kids go for dry-erase boards and clothes hangers. This is where divorcA(c)es go to replace the coffeemaker the ex got in the settlement. There's everything you could ever need for the kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom here, from high-quality goods to pure schlock, which is what I'm guessing they mean by "beyond." More >>

http://www.brookstone.com Vying with the Sharper Image and Hammacher Schlemmer for the title of Most Expensive and Useless Electronics-Inspired Gift Shop Ever, Brookstone trades in intriguing items that you really, really don't need. How about a talking remote thermometer ($75) or a talking picture frame ($45)? Or perhaps you'd like an alarm clock that plays bird chirps ($175) or a lighted nose/ear trimmer ($50)? More >>
http://www.circuitcity.com Circuit City has good deals on more mainstream CDs and DVDs; you can often find a Top 40 album here for $10. They also stock a wide range of consumer electronics merchandise. More >>
Yeah, like Kmart, except Chinese. Or at least thatas the popular belief. If you are looking for a day trip, forget the Statue of Liberty. Itas all about Cmart: an enormous Chinese supermarket with live fish, a butcher, an isle of imported snacks and sweets, handmade dumplings, bottled sauces, every kind of noodle you can imagine, and an unbelievable produce section that could double as an educational nature museum. You will want to buy everything you see, in many cases just out of curiosity or wonderment. Luckily, the prices are good. And thereas a real parking lot! More >>
http://www.coldstonecreamery.com New York diners who have never managed to master Starbucks' sizing system will find Cold Stone Creamery's similarly challenging; the ice-cream chain eschews small, medium, and large in favor of "Like It," "Love It," and "Gotta Have It" sizes. Once the portion is picked, patrons can concoct their own creations from super-premium ice cream flavors like vanilla, cake batter, chocolate, strawberry and coffee, plus a kaleidoscope of toppings: nuts, brownies, cookies, candy, and even chunks of pie crust. The Creamery's ice cream engineers will scoop your selections onto a frozen slab and deftly fold in the toppings, ensuring that you won't have to hunt very far with your spoon for another hunk of cookie dough. Voice Places has Cold Stone Creamery down cold. More >>
http://www.eddiebauer.com Why this store hasnat already gone out of business in New York remains unclear. Eddie Bauer caters to white adults who enjoy driving S.U.V.as and rafting. More >>
http://www.express.com/home.jsp The name says it all. Let this be a lesson: You can do something right, or you can do something fast. Fast = Express. You see where I'm going with this. More >>
Letas get this fake-meat party started, all you health nuts. This place is focused on soy alternatives to cuddly friends, as opposed to a Moby-esque vegetarian hipness. Like a good, dusty old butcher's, this place is cramped and lacking in afrills." And thatas a good sign. More >>
Screw ABC, Anthropologie, Urban. Screw any stores making big bucks overcharging us for stuff they paid a third-world worker 50 cents for. Instead, DIY: new curtains, silk skirts, or bed throws with fabric sold to you by helpful employees like Mita (pictured) at the INTERNATIONAL SARI PALACE. Around since 1971, ISP has over a hundred different designsofrom synthetic chiffons and georgettes, $10 to $40 per six yards (that's how much material goes in a sari), to embroidered sequined silks, $35 to $150 per six yards.

http://www.shopqueenscenter.com Sad to say, but how long has it been since any of us have really craved the J.C. Penney experience? It's the underwhelming department-store bookend at one end of every suburban town's "bad mall," the same mall with a single Chik-fil-A instead of a food court and a multiplex that shows Bad Boys II on all four screens for a week. We hope for a better future for this aging retail chain, but brands like Arizona Jean Company and even Nicole Miller's new line "nicole" do little to convince otherwise. More >>
A palette of fuchsias, reds, turquoises, mandarins, emeralds, and dozens of other Technicolors dazzles from the second you walk by Karishma Fashion. Styles are similar to what your lucky dolls got to wear, and come in colors and cuts you felt obligated to give up after age 17. Pants, dresses, skirts, and midriff-baring tops are hand-jeweled and sequined with alarming attention to detail. Indian brides hit this Jackson Heights spot for finery for their celebrations, knowing no two outfits here are alike. Even Barbie's dollhouse closet can't live up to that. More >>
http://www.thelemonicekingofcorona.com Grab a lemon or chocolate ice ($1 for a small paper cup) and watch a bocce game. It's the perfect Queens-Italian day. The Lemon Ice King does not mess around with new-fangled flavors or any other innovations. Ice is it here, and the recipe for success hasn't changed over the generations. More >>
http://www.shopqueenscenter.com We like to think of this as the one real mall in the city. Queens Center has many of the retail chains everyone visits in Soho and Union Square (Forever 21, Benetton, H&M, Urban Outfitters, Club Monaco) minus the packed crowds and overtaxed staff. That means these stores will, for once, carry clothing in your sizeabut just don't expect quite the same selection. The H&M here is a smaller, more sedate version of the ones in downtown Manhattan. But does downtown Manhattan have a Cinnabon? More >>
http://www.staples.com Like its rivals OfficeMax and Office Depot, Staples is a bland, utilitarian big-box supply store that stocks a bewildering array of reasonably-priced merchandise, from scissors to scanners. Tip: they sometimes have ridiculous deals on CD-Rs, so snap up a spindle of 50 or 100 the next time you're there. The furniture section is mostly tacky particle-board-and-veneer modular stuff and ugly 1970s metal filing cabinets, but they do the job if you're in a pinch. More >>
