Sprocket Report post Posted April 23 Thanks for the list and comparison - what I don't see is state tax (I'll have to pay regardless of mail order or not...). Local to me is an Agway store, TSC and a couple other garden/feed-type co-op stores that are similar to Agway. Sometimes the pennies, sometimes dollars, premium is worth it because I've saved the P&H costs associated with mail order. Knowing I'm "within range" of a price is always a consideration though so the list is very helpful. Complete aside: Another consideration with shipping liquids is freezing - I live in New England and frozen product can be a thing with shipped goods. My local Tandy store manager explained why she orders when to avoid frozen products - mostly dyes and the like. Frozen buckles aren't a concern but some liquids are unusable once frozen...

BigDogPaul1962 Report post Posted April 23 Thank you for your feedback. I certainly enjoyed reading your comments and appreciate your candor. The Sales Tax is the first item in my notes at the bottom. Different locations have different rates. That doesn't affect the price comparison at all. Maybe I'm missing something but I've noticed some vendors charge me sales tax while others do not. I have not noticed a pattern to this, nor am I overly interested in finding out why. When I don't get charged any sales tax I just smile to myself. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
