I always appreciate your feedback – it’s good to know what you think I’m doing wrong (so that I can fix it) and what you think I’m doing right (so that I can do more of it).
A reader recently suggested that I tweak the subject lines of the emails in my feed to make it easier to identify. I think I’ve changed the email subject settings so that the subject of the post will show up in the subject of the email. If this works (and boy, I hope it does), it will help you identify and find posts in your inbox. If I’ve screwed it up, who knows what it will say. But rest assured, I’m on it.
Thanks to Konni for her suggestion. I hope that it makes taxgirl even better for all of my readers. If you ever have an idea for making the site better, drop me a line.
If you’re not subscribing via email, give it a whirl here. It’s free and easy (insert random inappropriate joke here).
I would like to know if I have to pay sales tax on something I buy from out of state. I’m interested in laptops from Toshiba, which is in California. I live in Connecticut. I’m not sure if I have to pay sales tax and which state’s rate I pay. Can you help me?
If the seller doesn’t charge you sales tax (though most large online retailers do), you may be subject to use tax, depending on the laws in your state. If so, you’d pay tax at your state’s tax rate directly to the Tax Dept.
