- what is "wingo"?
It is advertising a product called "Wingo", and suggesting that if you use it you will become successful (perhaps the product in the photo)
- what is "Saks"?
Saks is a very famous department store
- what does it mean "a notion of demonstrating to yourself that the icon was powerless"? specifically I do not understand what "icon" stand for in this case, and how it is "powerless".
The original meaning of "icon" is a smallish painting on wood depicting Jesus or some other religious figure. People use them in prayer feeling that the painting has the power to assist their prayers to be heard and granted. So, he returned to this place with the idea (notion) of proving that the window mannequin, that resembled Amanda, did not hold any special power over him.

"Wingo"是一个品牌名称,可能是某种产品或服务的名称,根据文中的描述,可能是一种能让人立即成为赢家的产品或服务。
"Saks"是一家知名的美国百货公司,专门销售高档时尚品牌的服装、饰品等。
在这段文字中,“icon”指的是指代性的符号或象征,可能是指代文中提到的Amanda mannequin,也就是一个具有象征意义的人偶。在这里,作者想要证明这个“icon”对自己来说是无力的,也就是说作者试图证明这个象征物对自己没有影响力,无法左右自己的情绪或行为。所以“icon”在这里是指一种象征物,而它被描述为“powerless”是指它对作者来说失去了影响力。
