My in-laws have lived in Delmar (just outside Albany) for 20 years although they are from Mass and would love to move back someday. I have been going to this area for 16 years for visits so I know it fairly well (I can find my way to the important things like the mall without a problem!
).

I always go to Crossgates mall because it is the closest to the in-laws house. Stuyvesant plaza is great for the high end stores (window shopping only you understand!
). I was there about a fortnight ago and my MIL and I wandered into a little deli type store. They (to my amazement) had a small selection of British stuff for sale. I was quite upset though when I picked up a packet of cream crackers (amazing with a big chunk of cheddar cheese! 
) only to find that they were expired! 
I did manage to buy some turkish delight and flakes that were perfectly fine though. I was upset that the only flavour of hoola hoops that they had were 'original', "where's the variety people!" Oh, and I have never been to the Capitol buildings although I know where they are, I'll bear your tip in mind.

Why don't the culrpits (ie. britvic) here shut it or make an effort to offer some useful friendly advice for a change about how the person could make it happen (plenty have done it you know and are happy), instead of telling them all that it won't happen. Everyone lives there own life, has there own reasons for wanting to come to the States and have every right to have this treated with curtosy.
This place is fast becoming the WORST place to come for advice and discussion about moving to the States.
