Going to be in NY in January, and I really want to get in to the NYSE. I know that public tours aren't available anymore, but I think that employees can bring someone in? If anyone here works on the floor or knows someone that does, I would be happy to pay!

Sorry for being off topic but didn't know where elee to post this question. Does anyone know of a place near queens they sell Yaniver esrogim? Wanna avoid the closed box shmitta sets if possible

I know this is likely way too late, but Fixe (Main St, KGH) had Yanivers - priced $75-$125.

so...I'm staying with my wife for one night in NYC this Monday night. Not sure how to book. Want a nice Hotel that can give me bang for the Buck or miles. I have 250k MR, 100k Chase, and 31K SPG. Or I can pay cash for a good deal. With so many options i'm confused AND last time I relied on myself I screwed up BIG TIME. I chose Hoboken, instead of NYC and my wife was very let down. SO, if you guys out there can help me, I would appreciate it.

See if phnyc has point availability that night. Great hotel good location.
Its 30k hgp which you can transfer from chase. Or you can sell UR points and buy a sign up night for 250.

Generally points do not give you the greatest value for hotels in nyc. Better off buying a Hyatt sign up night (stay at park Hyatt or andaz5th Abe if ph is unavailable) or a ihg free night will be a little cheaper and the intercontinental is good value

Reserve Cut, Pardes, and Mike's for dinner. Or if you want one milchig dinner, go to Va Bene (better than Noi Due IMO), and go to Reserve for lunch.
