Before I started reading SF, Century 21 was a realty company with bad gold jackets and Daffy was a duck. We have very few places to get discounts on high quality menswear in AZ. (really only Last Call and Off 5th)

I will be in Paramus for a week on a business trip. What stores do I need to hit? I doubt I will make it in to the city.

Definitely hit C21! I was in the one in NYC today and tried on a Luciano Barbera suit, checked out some Zegna and Barbera shirts, but only ended up buying a few Talbott pocket squares and some Corgi socks. Almost pulled the trigger on a couple of Brioni ties. Half my wardrobe is probably from there.

I grew up in Bergen County. Paramus stores are closed on Sundays, "Blue Laws".
If you can plan a day and, have transportation, you're better off here:

It's not New York but, if you're looking for deals and are limited on time, you'll cover much more ground there. Just plan an itinerary because it can be overwhelming for new comer's.
N.Y.S. open 7 days a week.

If you're only going to be able to do Paramus and the close surroundings:

Bergen Town Center, which includes:
--Century21 [can have good selection, a lot of it is terrible and the prices are not drop-dead]
--Nordstrom Rack [meh selection]
--Neiman Marcus Last Call [small selection]
--Off 5th
--Bloomingdale's outlet

Daffy's [everything I'm currently seeing in NYC-area stores, however, is currently pretty weak]

Do NOT go to the Loehmann's in Paramus: they have NO decent men's clothing, unlike the Chelsea location in NYC that has some amazing (but still expensive) pieces.

Just for the eyecandy (completely non-discounted unless there is a sale going on which, come to think of it, there may be) it is likely worth going to the Neiman Marcus in the Garden State Plaza. Their suits etc. menswear section is badass if totally unaffordable.
