Back-to-school deals

Whether you're heading back to class or just need to stock up on basics, everyone's favorite T-shirt store is making it easy with back-to-school package deals. Now through Tuesday, you can build your own American Apparel "Student Survival Kit." One possible combination includes a pair of underwear, socks, basic T and duffel bag for $50; there are also combos for $100 and $150.

Dunny Trading Party

Designer toy shop ROBOTlove celebrates the release of the new Dunny designer-toy series during its monthly Dunny Trading Party. The latest lineup includes contributions from Tokyo design company Devilrobots and Japanese graphic designer Mori Chack, who adds a Dunny twist to his Gloomy Bear character ($7.95 each). Also look for two "chases" (toy-speak for mystery items) that will be slipped into the lineup, and the chance to win a rare 3-inch Dunny by NYC-based artist Pon.
