Weekends seem made for a slower-paced kind of shopping.

You usually have the chance to poke around a bit, not rush in and out of a store on the way home from work, etc.

I received an update from our Rockland office about an opportunity to shop for unusual home accessories that is going on every Sunday [...]

I’ve just heard about a sample sale that’s scheduled for tomorrow in Nyack.

My friend and colleague Amy Vernon forwarded me the details, which I’m passing along.

If I hear anything more, I’ll add an update — but it sounds pretty interesting, to be sure.

Do you crave a vintage Chanel bag?

Well, there’s an event going on this afternoon (and tomorrow) that will help put those feelings to rest.

Sounds like there’s going to be some good shopping in Briarcliff Manor later this week.

Expect some good deals from participating shops along Pleasantville Road, [...]

I’ve heard from Jennifer Leonard, the owner of that super-stylish Bedford Hills shop called Jenesaisquoi Home.

Well, she’s soon to close the store and move to California.

It’s a loss, to be sure, on the home-design front — but it’s not over yet…

Going to be catching up on a couple of postings this afternoon, as I was off yesterday and have some shopping news to share.

First up, just wanted to let you know that Madelynrose in Pearl River is having a half-price sale starting on Friday.

Visit the Web site of the children’s boutique (38 E. Central Ave., [...]

I’ve really gotten into the habit of carefully looking over my receipts after I come home from a shopping trip.

Most often, I admit, it’s to check out how much I saved.

That’s what I was thinking when I visited The Clothesline in New Rochelle yesterday.
