The city is woollier than it's been in a while — everyone seems to be crimping the usual boundaries. E-bikes and scooters zip through the middle of the street, and restaurants have annexed the pavemen t outside their doors in hopes of keeping their businesses afloat. After a brutal spring and summer of pandemic uncertainty and economic instability, New York is doing its best to pass for its old self, but in truth, things haven't felt this unsteady since right after 9/11.

Shopping online to stay safe during the pandemic?
The holiday season is already a booming time for online shopping . The COVID-19 pandemic only increases the likelihood that when people shop this holiday season, they will choose online shopping over brick-and-mortar stores. However, this also means there is likely to be a boom in online scams .
When people buy these scam products, what arrives is typically of low quality . That's if anything ever arrives. Often the company just shutters and renames itself without sending anything. In worst-case scenarios, they also steal customers' credit card information.

She said: "We have to not waste so much. We have to be satisfied with less. I'm trying to not buy anything new anymore, no new clothing. But I also understand that I can say that because I still wear what I wore 30 years ago, and I have a lot of clothes, so it's easy for me."
