I live in Western NY, and I no longer buy cigarettes in NY, I buy boat parts online and have them delivered tax free and do much of my consumer electronics purchasing in Delaware when I visit my in-laws. This extends to tires, liquor, any almost anything else that is taxable and that you can stuff into the back of an SUV or trailer.
Yep, raise them taxes higher and higher. Only makes purchasing out of state more attractive.
And form IT-201 askes me to declare all of these things and pay the sales tax on them. Hah, not on your life. Tough to track when you pay in CASH.
The libtards who live in the “downstate corridor” who vote for democRATS have us outnumbered. There are alternatives to those of us who live close enough to the state lines.
GOOD FOR YOU!
I’d certainly do the same thing in your shoes!
And how does NY respond to all of this?
RAISE TAX RATES. TAX MORE STUFF!
Freaking idiots!
