Secret Shopping Destinations

Recently, Refinery29 published the article 5 Secret Shopping Destinations Less Than 3 Hours From NYC which included towns like Hudson, Rhinebeck, Saugerties and more.  For each area they include several links of small businesses to check out.

Personally speaking, exploring towns like the ones listed in the article is one of the reason why I am happy that I moved out of the city.  Unfortunately I still have to commute to Manhattan daily but it's nice to know that there are so many more wonderful options to enjoy outside of the five boroughs.
