Arby's stole 6 cents!

[TheOriginalJames]

I think. I got that 5 for 5.95 deal for lunch today and my total came out to 6.37.

I dunno why but since I had my phone out I did some math, Indiana state sales tax is 6%... and it came out to 6.307. Round it up to $6.31...

So technically they stole 6 cents from me.

I'm thinking that extra 6 cents might be going towards the coliseum expansion they did several years ago. Ft Wayne added a 1% tax for that on top of the 6% state tax...

/bored

Fuck I need to find something to do around the house.

Wow, and I thought I was weird....

 

[AUDRAA]

only you James would complain about 6 cents

 

[TheOriginalJames]

I didn't complain to them, and I was just going for one of my random threads here.. haha


At first I was trying to figure out why it was off, and in the course of making the thread I realized that Allen County/Ft Wayne imposed that extra 1% two or so years ago.

I'd sue them so they'd have to give you the whole restaurant in the settlement!! You can be a franchise owner! hehe

haha I think I shall take that as a compliment.

Could I borrow a few bombs?

hmmm... perhaps I could, but then I'd deal with food & pushy area managers again. *sigh*

 

[UncleBacon]

I can see what I can do

Whatever floats your boat.

man our state sales is 8.25%. Youre getting a deal if you look at it that way! youd be paying more in TX!

 

[Peter Parka]

Thats confusing, over here they add the tax on on the price, what you pay is what you see on the price tag.

 

[SilentSinz]

that would be a big help, they have so many forms of taxes here its ridiculous

The saying is true. Everythings bigger in Texas. lol

When my brother was in Dallas he went to get cigarettes and they wouldn't sell them to him because he had an Indiana drivers license. Didn't matter that he was 27.
