8.25% in NYC, though not everything is taxed, like certain clothing, shoes or other apparel. I used to have to go to Jersey to shop cuz they have no tax there, now I can shop in NYC without having to cross the GWB

NJ is 6% with no tax on clothes or food. Shoes and Candy are taxed though.
NJ has a 3% tax in depressed areas (Newark, Plainfield, Camden, Phillipsburg etc).

What's with that? No tax on clothes, but they tax shoes? Freaking idiots...Play The Taxman by The Beatles. Nuff said...

I'm in the military so I don't pay a dime in sales tax unless I shop off-base (Nebraska). I can get everything I need on base though. On top of that my state of residence is Nevada which has no state income tax. On top of that I usually fly into a tax exempt zone several months of the year. All it takes is one second in a tax exempt zone and I'm federal income tax exempt for the entire month.
