    I'm going to NYC with the g/f in 16 days and I can't wait :j

    Never been to America before so it'll be an experience to remember! Not sure what else I should be booking though....we've got our money sorted (plus a Nationwide card), NYC Pass, Legally Blonde booked. Should I be booking restaurants?!

    :eek:

    Oh muhahahahaha yourself. ;) Got my dollars today from the Post Office, she luckily wasn't annoyed when I asked for $100 in one dollar bills. :rotfl:

    Like to be prepared. :D

    hammy... i'm tempted to set up, when should i buy my dollars, and make it a subscription based website. A One off fee of £10 to join, and then i'll send out a random email once in a while telling people to buy their dollars...

    i think with the amount of people on here asking that question, i could make a killing..


    retepetsir - if you want to book some meals, you can do that now, check https://www.opentable.com for an online booking system. last time i went to NYC, i booked 2 meals for a week stay, before I went, and also used it to book maybe one more on the day I wanted to go to that restaurant.

    Also, it is useful to book things online, as you can adjust the time... one day we were about 2 hours away from our reservation, and just wern't hungry, so we shifted the meal about an hour later.. it was easy to do!

    LouBlue - $100 in singles? are you insane! what do you need that for?
    ;)

    I find $20 bills spend just as well and take up a lot less room.. :)

    food portions are a lot bigger in NYC..

    of course not.. i ate more, but didn't reserve, as small pub/restaurants don't need reservations!

    meh!
