Same thing for Oregon. I grew up on the state line between WA & Idaho. We always went to Idaho because there is no sales tax. Now, I live far NW side of the state and see Canadians coming from British Columbia to shop because our 9.5% taxes are far cheaper than theirs.
There is sales tax in Idaho now. My son pays over 11%-and when we go over and I shop, I am not tax exempt. But I am in Washington if I show my drivers license.
oops! I meant he pays 7%-they get a credit on their state income tax for taxes that they paid for food, I think it is.
