So my aunt and uncle are making a trip to Boston. They asked me if i felt like going..

I've been on the east coast once, virginia beach and near DC. I loved virginia beach, so many black people compared to washington. I had no idea, i guess they didnt get the memo to move north? anyways...

Are there any sick sneaker or clothes shops in Boston?

Just want to weigh out my pros and cons of either staying at home or going out east during my summer break.

Any suggestions?

Oh, stop being so secretive.

To get to Bodega (highly overrated...their clothes are stupidly overpriced), walk down mass ave. in the direction away from MIT.  you will pass by Berklee College of Music.  On one of the sides streets on the left near Berklee you will see a shitty looking covenience store about 20 feet down the street on the left.  The store has big windows with products in the windows (you can most likely find photos of the store online). 

Walk into the store.  You'll know you're in the right place if you see teens and 20-somethings wearing nice sneakers and clothing while playing on laptops in the store.

Theres a drink machine in the back right of the store (I think it's Snapple).  Walk up to the machine, and the front of the machine will slide to the left, and BAM, a very expensive clothing store is located through the Snapple machine.

Hope this helps.  Have fun in Boston (do NOT do the freedom trail).

Yea, there's no reason to go sneaker shopping in boston. Someone just asked a question like 2 weeks ago about what to do in Boston and there are some good answers (mine in particular). Searchbar it.

Honesty, only five people were killed for that. Not much of a massacre. Im not saying death should be counted that way but the name makes it sound way too cool.
