It’s hard to ask people to just get out there and shop considering all the challenges the country faces nowadays. But we here at the Consumer Corner will try our best to continue to help shoppers find the best bargains Brooklyn has to offer. From Greenpoint to Sea Gate, from Red Hook to Cypress Hills, we’ll scout out shops that pride themselves in service and affordability. And if we come up short in our attempts, we can also blame the government. Let’s see what’s out there this week.
