There isn't all that much in the way of online one-stop-shops, as it were for international shopping; generally you need to Google your destination with words like "shopping" and "souvenirs." One exception:

The Silas Griffith Inn is proud to announce its New Summer mid-week specials - all King/Queen/Twin rooms just $99/night and still includes breakfast!  Enjoy hikes, shopping, museums, theater and more without the weekend crowds.  Or just sit and relax in this quiet Historic Inn/B&B in the quaint little village of Danby, Vermont.  Family friendly and pet friendly! Ask about other specials and weekly rates and large group rates.  Now available - dog walking is included in the pet fee, so if it is too hot or cold Fido can stay comfortable in your room.

If you're heading to Vermont for any reason visit Manchester Designer Outlets.Lots of stores from local artists, international imports and name-brand designers.  Plus, stay with us at The Silas Griffith Inn and get a wonderful coupon book with discounts, free items, and BOGO coupons.

Bad news: The The great Bluestone Gallery in Milford, PA, which displays works by potter and bell-maker David Greenbaum and other nationally known artists and artisans, is going out of business. The good news is that Bluestone has dramatically reduced its prices for its final week. This is a chance to pick up quality pieces at a fraction of what they'd normally cost.

I'm leaving for San Miguel de Allende, Mexico next month and wondering if the group has any shopping secrets that they would like to share. I'm interested in unique luxury jewelry, clothing and pottery.

Thanks,

Rose

I can't believe it, but, Yohji Yamamoto is closing his only two shops in North America, both located in NYC... I've been visiting NYC primarily to shop for clothes at Yohji's stores for our restaurant staff and myself for years, and this has to be a huge loss for America. Oh well, we'll have to go to Paris more often!
