When you move to a new place, of course, money is sorely lacking. Involuntarily, you begin to think about how and where you could save. For example, you can get a shared living space. In this article, we will give as an example a few stores that you can look into if the topic of saving is relevant to you.
Let’s Start with Household Goods
And in the first place, we will put the famous “Dollar tree”, where all goods are at the same price per dollar (they recently raised prices – now everything is $1.23).
The second place of honor is at “D II”. The store is located in Brighton Beach. Very relevant for those who live there or on Sheepshead bay. There you can find clothes, household goods, and hygiene products.
And third. If you live in Brooklyn, don’t pass by Bobby’s department store. Before you go to distant IKEA, go to this store. It is simply huge: two floors of various household goods from forks to carpets.
Food
You can talk about food for a long time, but Aldi is the most economical supermarket. Shop with American and German goods. The prices in it are much lower when compared with Target or Whole foods. The only thing is that there are only two of them in Brooklyn. Check first if it makes sense for you to go there.
Pay attention to the street shops “99 cents” and the like. Of course, you are unlikely to find anything there for 99 cents, but you can definitely find a lot of useful things.
We would also call stores like Lotless and Jaks a good option – they will help keep the green ones in your wallet.
Transport
It won’t take long to talk here. If you are saving, Uber and Lyft are definitely not for you. The best solution would be to buy an unlimited travel pass for 30 days. It costs $127 and is valid on both the subway and buses.
In fact, saving even in a city like New York is quite possible. Knowing the places is important!
And the last tip is to open Google Maps and just type in discount. So you can find many more similar stores not only in Brooklyn, but also in other areas of the Big Apple.
