What have you bought recently?

Major online purchase this morning. Tax was another $90. Will arrive Thursday. Wildflowers are already rising at two familiar desert areas while after a long month of dry weather, my Tahoe ski resorts are forecast to receive multiple feet of low elevations, snows within a week plus. Thus, will soon be increasingly busy for weeks.

Note after the purchase via an online credit card, Bank of America, nicely immediately sent a text message asking if it was really this person making the purchase. Thank you BofA for going the extra distance making sure larger transactions are really from mr dave!

that's one of the beauties of the UK....when you see a price for something, that's what you pay, no tax is added onto it at the sales desk

no tax is included, we don't pay extra at the checkout or if we buy online.... the price you see if the price you pay!.... also in the Uk if you win a prize... then you get to keep it all... so if win a car for example you don't have to sell it to pay the tax..or if you win the lottery you keep it all...
