Hello New Yorkers!

I am considering visiting NY for first time, for ~3 nights around Christmas with my wife and have couple of questions and need some recommendations:
1. Worth going there for Christmas at all - will everything be closed?
2. What to do in general - i.e. just roam around the city, or focus on visiting theaters, museums?
3. Any particular must-see during this time?
4. We will probably stay on Manhattan, so we don't need car I assume

Perhaps an unusual question for this thread - what is the good place to buy good ski jackets/pants in NY? We will be staying in Manhattan.

I was in NY for three days on Christmas. Your advices, guys, were great. Thank you. I really enjoyed the city.

As for $75 - from my experience it is very feasible. You can always go to any deli buffet or some snack shack and have good amount of reasonable quality food for $14-20 pp.
