I didn't have a budget or anything so I found it mildly interesting that it turned out an even number.

Where do you live that there's no tax?

Arizona, Groceries aren't taxed here.

Got it. I thought this was a restaurant receipt for Panera, but groceries makes more sense not to tax.

Only 13 states tax groceries.

I don't know where OP is, but here in Massachusetts, we have no sales tax on groceries:

NE has the same no-grocery tax rule. A handful of states have no sales tax in general (I believe SD and either NH or VT for example) and many, if not all, won't tax groceries purchased with whatever food stamps are called in the respective state

No sales tax in Oregon, but income taxes are rough. My friend moved across the river to Vancouver, WA and makes ~$50k more a year from tax savings.

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.
