I'm sorry, but I wonder how many no's vs how many yes's they get.

An interesting thing happen to me just on this very subject. I ordered something online, and the shipping was free, but I was ordering it from Wal-Mart, and the taxes were more than regular shipping. The order didn't go through, for some reason, so I ordered the item from another company. The order was cheaper, for I didn't pay taxes, and the shipping was cheaper than the taxes in OK. How strange.

If I am looking for a particular fabric I don't care where it comes from. I love looking at all the on line shop. I wish I could buy more often and had more money to spend. It's hard to be choosy.

I live in western Montana, but the entire state is sales tax free except for a tourist place that is allowed to charge sales tax. They keep trying to pass the sales tax law but we keep voting it down.

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.
