Thats a really nice drop...

But still leaves a pretty heavy tax in place compared to many other places..

Certainly makes me appreciate TN that much more (we only pay a 6% tax)..

Yeah, we're still screwed in MN. I support my local B&M's for smaller purchases, but for box purchases....I'm almost 100% (still) buying online or from other BOTL.

Keep in mind that ALL internet purchases will be subject to your locality sales tax in the near future. The Bill is called the Marketplace Fairness Act. I'm not 100% certain but I think it passed last year so by middle of this year it should go into effect.

Guess I need to buy all my boxes now haha. Or do box splits with my fellow brethren in lower tax states.

Finally some good information on this. I was told about it about a month ago @ my b&m but couldn't find any info, other then the word of mouth.

My b&m gives 20% off a box purchase so the little extra charge i get compared to online id rather see go to them

Well that's good news. At least it makes it a little easier on the wallet when you Support your local B&M's
