The mid-week in shopping, although by the time you read this, it will be more like the-two-days-left-in-the-week in shopping. But that's okay.

I'm pissed I missed the first day of the La Cosa sale, because all the good stuff (i.e. tank tops) goes early on the first day.

I think the twice-yearly Aeffe sale--featuring Moschino, Alberta Ferretti, and Jean Paul Gaultier--is overrated, but it's always worth checking out, as prices are for clothes and accessories are 60% off. Through 11/12; 10-5:30 Thurs., 10-5 Fri.; 30 W. 56th St. (5th & 6th Aves.).

I think Jay Strongwater's stuff is kind of tacky, but it's sold at Neiman Marcus and the like; at this sale, his ornate picture frames, compacts, tableware, and more are 65% off. 11/11-11/12; 8:30-4; 11 E. 36th St. (5th & Madison), 8th fl.
