Brooklyn Bargain Shopping
Park Slope 92 5th Avenue 718-630-1630
My Take: This is, by far, my favorite place to shop in all of New York. The well selected stock of vintage and lightly wore recent garments (think H&M a half season late) fill up the recently relocated shop. I make sure to go when they open on the weekend and look through every rack. Also consider taking in your old clothes in exchange for store credit or cash. I usually do pretty well with that and end up spending all of the credit in the same shopping trip.
Williamsburg 88 N. 11th Street 718-486-0816
My Take: I don’t often get out to this much bigger Williamsburg outpost, but I defintiely find something every time I visit. There are double or triple the racks to look through and its always crowded. The merchandise is aimed at a younger customer (Park Slope is known for its high populaion of families and moms). I still recommend checking out the neighborhood, especially if you are visiting from out of town.
