Begging in NYC

We walk off feeling disgusted with the money we just spent on a horse carriage ride. We rush over to buy a drink to cool down when it hits me that I should start begging for some money in New York. So I sit in the middle of a walk way with my hat in front of me waiting for people to donate money. My theory was to raise money to pay for the Central Park tour and drinks. Unfortunately this didn't go to plan.

The next best thing was to head to Bloomingdales to do some shopping. Pulling out our NY Pass we discover that we are entitled to a free gift and a discount voucher when presented at reception.

We arrive at Bloomingdales and I'm excited as this is all I hear on the sitcom Friends. We stroll in and I'm disgusted that I'm wearing shorts in a high society department store.

We find the desk to collect our free gift and discount voucher. The guy presents the discount voucher to us and goes through the restrictions it has on the back of it. You can't use the discount voucher on Ladies wear, coats, intimates, hoiseries, jewellery, watches, comestics, fragrances, mens wear, electronics, furniture, kitchen ware and the list goes on. What the hell can you use it for then?

We stroll back out of Bloomingdales to head to CNN to do a studio tour. We have been wanting to do this for a while but for some reason we keep missing out on the tour times. We pull out the NY Pass book and realise that we have missed out on the last CNN tour again.

Back to the New Yorker...
