What is use tax on the Utah tax return?  Does that mean if you buy something on amazon that does not collect a sales tax, that you still have to pay a use tax?  I know for Illinois, they have something similar and although amazon doesn't collect tax, I'd still have to pay sales tax to Illinois either separately or on my tax return.  There are many comments on this website about not having to pay taxes.  I'm not certain that is accurate for many states that have a separate sales and use tax reporting option esp on their tax returns. 

Awesome buy emazers! Our stupid TRU had them at $119.99

Sales tax in st.George Utah is 6.25%.

Yeah, you naughty boys and girls need to start reporting your use tax and act like responsible members of our great society.

This is what I think of the USE tax:

Stopped by the local toys r us.... Left scared

 

theyre asking 149.99 a train...

they are asking 119.99 at my store

haha - 149.99 - thats robbery!

Texas tax is worse. 8.25%

 

EIGHT. WITH A POINT TWO FIVE NEXT TO IT.

 

Makes every sale that much worse.

8.25 even for things like auto as well??? - o wow, that makes a 60,000 car almost 65,000!!

9% on Long Island :(

^13% north of the boarder in CAN

VA is 5% - i believe auto is 3% but is changing to 4 in july

I need to go live in a state with no sales tax.

 

I think the sheer amount of roads to maintain in Texas, aside from the population, it what drives the tax rate here.

They maintain roads in your part of texas?? Around here they just put up signs. Caution: Enter at your own risk.

No, sales and use tax for cars is 6.25% in Texas.

 

There are plenty of places with sales tax way worse than Texas. 

 

Keep in mind that you get to deduct state sales tax from your federal taxes.

9.5% in this evergreen state

Interesting point.  You can claim  either your state income  or state sales tax on federal.  For most of us...income tax blows away sales...so it's not an option..but in states where there is no income tax.......hmmmm.

I've taken to having alot of my purchases shipped to my ski house in Vt. Its a whole different ball game minus the 8.0625 tax that I pay in NY.

9.5% in this evergreen state 

Wow!!! I thought 8.0625 was bad!
