i went out today to purchase just a few things, taking advantage of the tax-free weekend here in VA. how much did i save? i'm not sure. in all fairness, i did not make major purchases, that's where the real savings would be.
receipt #1: $66.50 + $1.62 tax = $68.12
receipt #2: $21.17 + $0 tax = $21.17
again, i'm not sure what it would add up to. something tells me i saved about $5 anyway.
and speaking of taxes, how much is the tax on food, for crying out loud? i stopped and picked up a chicken sandwich on the way home. the subtotal on that receipt is $2.79 plus .32 tax. what happened to the .08 tax on food? and where is it all going? [but i guess that's another story altogether.]
