I have learned today that when you walk into any store on Fifth or Madison Avenues carrying a Tiffany's bag, no matter how small, you get treated very nicely by staff.

Waxing semi-political, if there's any doubt about the state of the economy, about half of what I wanted to pick up was sold out this year. The reason, I found was:

• Last year sucked so badly, there was tons of merchandise afterward that had to be sent back.
  
• Everyone from Steuben Glass to Marie Belle Chocolate thinks last year is a good predictor for this year.
  
• Therefore, they sent out very little stock.
  

I still scored nicely.
