"Several large U.S. cities also raised their sales tax rates in 2007 — Boulder, Colo.; Phoenix, Ariz.; St. Louis, Mo.; Denver, Colo. and Seattle, Wash. — all increased rates between 0.1 percent and 0.2 percent.."

What is the sales tax rate in Seattle now? Here in the Tri-Cities we pay 8.3% and it has been this rate for quite a while now.

See... there’s at least ONE advantage to living in Oregon. (No sales tax)

I was looking at the new "destination-based" sales tax tables for my boss last week. It's 9.0% for large portions of the Eastside and Seattle.
