A report on The News' blockbuster sale, currently taking place at 495 Broadway in Soho, from a shopping-focused reader: "Hi Racked, I just came back from the news sale. It was pretty good, with two tables of $10 Cheap Mondays and several racks of $20 pairs organized by size. Vena Cava and Band of Outsiders appeared to be the most expensive lines there, maybe 100-200+-ish? There's also a $5 bin of clothes, and a shoe selection (for boys, mostly, i think). The dressing room is communal, i.e. to be shared by both boys and girls—just a warning for the shy." [Racked Inbox]
