The monthly MetroCard is your friend. For $71, you get unlimited use of the subways and buses (except the special express ones.) It will make you do silly things, like enter a subway station so that you can walk through it because of the bad weather. Buy a monthly MetroCard, and buy it with your credit or debit card at a machine in a station. Never buy one with cash. Why? If you lose your MetroCard, you can call the MTA, and they will refund you the balance of the month! For all your MTA and MetroCard questions, go to http://MTA.info/
Any New Yorkers want to add anything?

I did this yesterday. Got off at 34th St/Herald Sq. Walked thru the station & into the Manhattan Mall @ 32nd Street. Got a big coffee from the M Cafe near the front doors of the mall. Walked back thru the station & swiped my card thru only to walk thru to 35th street for my nite class. All that to avoid some cold weather!
