    Seeing how some counties in the state are at 10% and 11%, 8.5% is on the low side.

    NYC is 8%
    Nassau County is 8.875% up to 8.87% depending on the town in which you live. This post was edited by Spunky at July 23, 2022 5:24 PM MDT

    I believe it's 8.25, but what's a quarter point between friends?

    Seven percent.  Back home it's 10% and they tax groceries. This post was edited by Thriftymaid at July 23, 2022 5:24 PM MDT

    If they tried to tax food in Ohio, there would be rioting in the streets.

    In NYC, food that is pre-prepared or prepared let's say at a deli when you order, is taxed, but not most other food.

    OK. Sit in at a restaurant here is taxed, but not take out.

    But there are tradeoffs, like you have to live in Missouri!

    Yes, there are and you have the short end of both trades, you could not pay me to live in NYC.  
    But I am glad you enjoy it. Someone has to live there.

    GST is a flat 10% on everything. There are additional excises on fuel (primary producers exempt), alcohol and tobacco. This post was edited by Slartibartfast at July 23, 2022 5:24 PM MDT

    My state’s sales tax is 4.5%.  My county has none.  The closest city to me has 2% sales tax.

    But then Ohio will have its hand out for a cut on out-of-state purchases.

    Does NY charge a fee for out of state purchases?  That is a new one....it does not happen here.
