You could check with all kinda of search engines for the prices on airline tickets. You can also get info. from airline sites directly, that is how I ordered my tickets.

I just searched Google for Los Angeles maps because the interactive map won't load on my computer.
Does anyone have a map of the Convention Center with restaurants, hotels, banks etc. indicated on it?

I was wonder, are there any stores near the CC or Downtown that are specialized in stylish, tight fitting menswear currently popular in the U.K.? The stuff bands like Franz Ferdinand and Muse wear.
Very slim cut suits, thin ties, tight fitting shirts and pants, a typical color palette of black, white and reds.
Are there any stores where I can find such clothes at a decent price? The cheaper the better.

I would appreciate any suggestion. Thank you.

I don't think you'll find anything downtown. You can try window-shopping at Ted Baker on Robertson Boulevard in west L.A. or any place on Robertson, and the head over to Melrose Boulevard for a look-see. Bloomingdale's may have something, one in the Century City Shopping Center and then the flagship one at Beverly Center. You're gonna need a car....

I double-checked the fashion district downtown (i.e., Santee Alley), but there is little info on men's clothing, so I hesitate to recommend it. But it is downtown, so you could start there and see if you can find anything. It can be a kind of culture-shock, so be prepared. Oh, and bring cash and be prepared to bargain. It's expected happy .

Walk East on Olympic Boulevard to Maple Avenue, then down to 12th and up to 9th Street. Go early in the day -- but don't go on the weekend. It'll be crazy crowded.

I did a search for Costcos in the general area located near the Staple center and found these 3 addresses to be sorta North and nearest to the Staple center.

My question for anyone living in the area - which one would be the easiest to get to?

Costco
2901 Los Feliz Blvd, Los Angeles, CA


2207 W Commonwealth Ave, Alhambra, CA


1345 N Montebello Blvd, Montebello, CA


Also how about Ralph's at 2600 S Vermont Ave, Los Angeles, CA - fast good location to get to?

Thanks for any help...

The one on Los Feliz Boulevard, in the Atwater area of Los Angeles is the easiest to get to. Just don't do this drive at 5 in the afternoon happy .

From downtown, take the 110 Freeway north (towards Pasadena)
Stay in the left lane, as you will be merging left onto Interstate 5 (towards Sacramento)
Los Feliz Boulevard exit off the 5, turn right, go about a half mile and you'll see the COSTCO center on the left.

Getting to the Ralphs on Vermont is all surface streets, so it takes a little longer. It's where USC students go to shop.

Does anyone know if there is a Wachovia bank in the area where the Sheraton is or the convention center itself?

There is a Wachovia bank office at
333 S Grand Ave
Los Angeles, CA 90071
(213) 337-2191
(in downtown LA) - about 10-11 blocks from the Convention center.
- it's in Wells Fargo Plaza.

from the convention center, go north on S Figueroa, right on 4th, left on S Grand.(walking directions only)

to drive, you might need to take S Fig up to 1st (turning right) then right on S Grand.

the next nearest branches are in Beverly Hills (no ATM), Glendale (w/ ATM) and Downey (w/ ATM).

using the ATM locator on the Wachovia site, it doesn't list the downtown LA spot, so it might not have an ATM - if you want quick cash, Glendale or Downey are closest.. or just eat the ATM fees and use another machine.
