Hi guys, I will be visiting New York on a mini break from the UK soon and figure it would be rude not to take 30 mins out of our itinery to pick up some cheap products. Can anyone recommend a store with a good selection within travelling distance to midtown manhattan?



Would only have time to visit one store so make it a good un !!



Thanks in advance :xyxthumbs
 
Not sure what you mean by cheap, if "local" product from here gets marked way up getting across the pond, I guess our stuff here will be "cheap". The Poorboy's headquarters is just outside of NYC, but you'll pay list price. If you are looking for OTC Meguiar's, Mother's, etc., there are many Pep Boy's, Strauss, AutoZone, etc. in NYC and the metro area. If you want a "true" detailing store, we have one out here in NJ who is a Meguiar's and AutoMagic distributor, as well as some Collinite, and other stuff. He caters to large volume users as well as enthusiasts.
 
Sorry when I say cheap I just mean the normal price you guys pay, at best swap the $ for a pound sign and thats what we pay, at worst we pay significantly more!



I was hoping for an OTC store but perhaps with some megs or other pro grade products

How are you planning to send the stuff back to the UK? You do realize

that you may not be able to transpoert some of these items onbaord

a passenger airplane.
 
I know I won't be able to take pressurised containers but shouldn't have a problem with a botle or two of polish/wax?
 
Did you go yet? Here are stores in Manhattan exculsively.



Unfortunately there are no WalMarts or KMarts



You can try Target:



770 BROADWAY

NEW YORK, NY



250 WEST 34TH STREET

NEW YORK, NY



You can try Strauss Automotive



644 East 14th Street

New York, NY



You can try Autozone

No problem! A lot of other stores are in areas just outside Manhattan that you'll have a crazy time finding not knowing the NY City transit system.



The places I mentioned are easy to find within Manhattan. You'll love Strauss Automotive and Autozone! I just hope they are the same as the ones by me in New Jersey - big and loaded with car care supplies.



At Target, you'll be able to get some supplies as well as sheepskin mitts and microfibers.
