===Shopping=== If you are looking for unique '''souvenirs''', check out [http://www.wardmaps.com/info-store.php Boston Coasters] (Porter Station, Red Line) for special "Boston" gifts, or visit typical Fanueil Hall (see below) for lots of touristy souvenir carts and shops. ==== Electronics ==== *[http://stores.bestbuy.com/804/ Best Buy] - a "big box" electronics chain. Prices here are OK but not great; the customer service is NOT very good. We recommend you figure out what you want to buy ahead of time before going in the store. Otherwise, if you can have something shipped via online shopping, retailers like [http://www.newegg.com Newegg] or Amazon are far better options. Fenway Station, Green "D" line. ==== Department Stores, Fashion, etc. ==== *[http://www.newbury-st.com/ Newbury Street] -Lots of 'European' boutiques, expensive designer brands like Burberry, Prada, Gucci, Puma to Diesel, in addition to FCUK, Zara, as well as fancy cafes and art galleries. Very picturesque area of Boston. Not so good on a rainy or cold day. Accessible by the Arlington, Copley, and Hynes stations (Green Line). *[http://www.prudentialcenter.com Shops at the Prudential] - Upscale shopping mall, brands like Coach, Tiffany, Louis Vitton, FCUK, A/X, etc. Good on a rainy or cold day. Accessible by Back Bay (Orange Line), Prudential (Green E Line), Hynes (Green B, C, or D Lines). *[http://www.downtowncrossing.org Downtown Crossing] - Mostly large department stores (Macy's), clothing (H&M, TJ Max, Filene's Basement), and a very large shoe store (DSW).
