$8000 for one month in NYC

I've been talking with my friend Owen about living in New York for a month. We're both fairly committed Chicagoans, but work takes us to New York regularly and I've been flirting more and more with the city that never sleeps. With my $8000, I'm going to spend a month living in NYC.

Airfare: $200
MTA pass: $89
Chicago expenses: $1500
Month long, furnished sublet with kosher kitchen on UWS: $1200
Shopping spree at Lane Bryant and Vive La Femme: $1000
New shoes shopping spree on Zappos: $500
Broadway play for two: $500

Food, entertainment and cabs: $3000.
