    Better place to go shopping, Buffalo or Rochester???

    On Saturday my wife and I are making the trip south of the border to do a little Christmas shopping.
    Buffalo is the closer of the 2 locations but we dont mind the extra drive to Rochester if the shopping is better there. Help me out guys where is the better place to take my wife? I would like to visit a woodcraft for the first time as well, but this is not a must.
    Where is a good place to stay over night? Good place to have diner?

    Chris,

    never been there, but Bryan from Woodstock reported on a trip to Buffalo to visit "Phillips Brothers" where he scored a reconditioned Delta Bandsaw for a really sweet price.

    Or wasn't that the sort of shopping you had in mind?

    Hi Chris,

    If you ever come to the Prime Outlets in Grove City, PA you are right by me. Avoid the Thanksgiving Night sale though. They had a 10 MILE back up on I-79 just to start shopping at midnight. There is no tax on clother if you come to PA.

    Sorry can't help you with NY.

    I think there are a few places on Jefferson Rd. Which is were the woodcraft is.

    There is a hotel across the street from the woodcraft

    Both are near more than one mall.

    I like Rochester but that's because I'm already there. They get too much snow in Buffalo.
