Must be that health care system and all the other services that you get in Canada! (I have to pay for all that stuff out of pocket here.) What are income tax rates up your way?

OMG, I'm so sorry...really. When I looked at the thread I thought it was one page and I totally didn't see FL.

*embarassed*

I'd originally thought it was straight 6% too, like the statewide tax is, but in doing my excel spreadsheets 6% was always a penny or so off and it annoyed me to no end so I had to keep tweaking it until it came correct...why they charge .005% over the state tax I have no freakin' clue.

Georgia varies by county... If I order to my parents' address in GA it's only 5%... to mine it's 6%.

To reflect the most injurious of the two, I'll keep the 6% in place Scotty, but this is surprising to me because my understanding was that there could be only one tax rate for the entire state, irrespective of local jurisdictions' indexes — California being an excellent example, as I have yet to be taxed at the full rate of 8.25% here in the Bay Area. Interesting.

Ah yes, but is that 8.25% rate the STATE base rate for California or is it reflective of add'l taxing %(s)?

Here in Texas, the base sales tax is the 6.25% (as previously reported). Local jurisdictions (county, city, police, etc) add another 2%(+/-) to that figure - at least around where I live in the Houston area.

Arkansas is 8%

I see that you have Arkansas as 9.25%, this is not accurate in my situation. I live in NW Arkansas (by Ft. Smith) and my latest DVD's, House of Sand and Fog, $19.95/$1.60 tax and The Missing, $13.17/$1.05 tax prove that Arkansas sales tax, at least for me, is 8%.

Good luck,
George -bub

Been doing CH a long time (and through A LOT of accounts I might add... at several addresses) in GA and trust me... it DEFINITELY varies... not to mention that there are some counties here where the tax rate is higher (Fulton County is 7%)... I was just giving the most recent examples that I pay.
