State by Stae Sales Taxes

https://www.retirementliving.com/taxes-by-state


This is pretty interesting for cross border shopping, especially for us here in Québec who pay a hair more than 15% sales tax.

I bought a Canon zoom in New Hampshire at Best Buy and saved nearly $300.00 if I compared the price plus tax of my local photo store. Best Buy in Canada also respects the guarantees of items bought in BB in the States.

    YIKES! 15% tax. I decided not to buy RV property in TN when I saw their tax was almost 10%. :B

    When you RV to the states are you allowed to stock up on goods at a lower tax rate and bring it back across the border?

    We actual order quite a few things from NH and have them delivered to some good friends of our's in Manchester who we get together with on a regular basis.

    I also have stuff shipped or mailed to our seasonal site campground in upstate NY.
