(like metro bus service) can take the tax rate up to 8.25%. If you aren't in a hurry to get something, why drive around looking for what you want or need to find out that it isn't in the necessary size or desired color, spend money for gas, wait in lines in traffic and at the store, and pay that extra tax when you can get the product shipped directly to your home cheaper in most instances? It's an even better deal if you don't pay for shipping.

Paying the appropriate tax supports the community, provides social services and ultimately jobs.
