New York is a very large state and is a wonderful destination whether you are traveling with family or friends. There are many different attractions and interesting ways to spend a vacation and you are sure to never feel a fleck of boredom. One aspect of New York that has become known worldwide is its vast array of different types of stores, malls, and outlet centers.
The whole state is basically a shopaholics dream and you can find items that are relatively inexpensive for any budget. That is not to say that there are not expensive stores located nearly everywhere, if you are desiring a more high-class approach (and have the deep pockets to finance it) you will have no trouble finding different shopping destinations to satiate your material desires.
New York is also known for its selection of outlet malls. Outlet malls are basically collections of stores which are targeted towards attracting tourists with some of the cheapest prices you can find on designer brands. The benefit of shopping at these types of establishments is that there are multitudes of different types of stores, so no matter what type of consumer goods you are looking for they have the flavors to meet any fancy. Woodbury Common Premium Outlets is one such outlet mall which is located just outside of New York City in Central Valley, New York. It is comprised of nearly 250 name brand retailers who offer their wares at a significantly reduced cost compared to non-outlet locations. It has been attracting tourists from all over the world since it opened in 1985. Since then it has gone through many expansions and now occupies nearly a million square foot of shopping heaven! The Woodbury Common Premium Outlets has come to be known as one of the largest outlet centers in the world. It is so large that they even offer a free trolley service that helps by trucking visitors to various stops within the outlet center to minimize the need for walking everywhere (and leave you with more energy to shop!)
