I went grocery-shopping yesterday and rolled my eyes and made a disgusted noise when I heard the total. The cashier, who is from Rhode Island, informed me that the reason it was so high is that we 9 percent sales tax in my county on food. She said that there's no sales tax on food in her whole state!
:wow: :wow: :wow: :wow: :wow:
Am I the only person on the planet who didn't know this? Who pays taxes on food here? Who doesn't?
