Anyone know the cost in the US including tax? Don't they leave that off?
It varies state by state, some like Oregon have 0% tax, but most will be around ~~13%~~ 6-8% or so iirc.
how does this work if you live close to another state? As in if you live in a state with sales tax but down the road is a state without sales tax- why ever shop in your state?
Convenience. Unless you live right near the border, it's probably faster/easier to shop in your own state than drive all the way to another.
But if you do live near the border of a state without a sales tax, then it's pretty common to shop in the neighboring state, especially for larger purchases.
In Washington alcohol is so expensive that any reasonably sized party of alcoholics it's cheaper to drive across the entire state to buy in Idaho (forgive this disaster of a sentence structure I'm awake like 5hr early because of cats)
