The one at camp isn't too bad. Disney World is HORRIBLE!!! I've been saving my money to have some to spend at camp. Three weeks left!!!

Disney World isn't that much fun. All I really wanted to do was meet Mickey. Jason, is tax included in your gift shop like at the USSRC?

That's an advantage the USSRC has. Tax is included in all of the prices.

Well if you are bad at adding and guessing and stuff like me, having the tax included is a very good thing. It is way easier for me to keep track of how much I am spending at the gift shop at the USSRC. I buy so much stuff every time I go, that I often need to stop and add.

Same here. I love anything that is related to space.

Well unfortunately the tax isn't included at this gift shop but sales tax in this state isnt horrible i think its like 4% or something like that. Food on the other hand has an outrageous tax on it around here.

I wish we only had a 4% sales tax. We used to have a 5%, but a last December it becam a 6% sales tax. 5% was so easy to figure out, and go figure they did it right before Christmas.

Actually i just looked and its 4.5% here but thats better then the tax on prepared food i think thats 9%
Posted: Sat Jun 07, 2003 9:05 pm
Our sales tax is almost 7%. I think it is the same for prepared food.
Posted: Sat Jun 07, 2003 9:36 pm
I guess our sales tax really isnt that bad then
Posted: Sat Jun 07, 2003 10:31 pm
Our sales tax just went up to 7%. That is better than in texas where it is 8%. Our food tax is only 2% though so yay. But I reaaallly like how the gift shop at the USSRC has their tax all included and not confusing.

Yeah that was nice and on top of that when i went as a tourist in 98 the museum currator who use to work for our museum here got us the employee discount i think it was 40% you can imagine i bought alot.

You know how much I would buy if I could use someone's employee discount...SO MUCH! Like 50 NASA shirts!
Posted: Sun Jun 08, 2003 11:09 am
Well i bought everything i could with the money i had but i also had to save some for eating that night and the next day as well as for the trip home.

Who needs food when you could have NASA shirts?
Posted: Sun Jun 08, 2003 11:48 am
Well when noone else is going to pay for your meals or anything else while your traveling you have to save some money.
Posted: Sun Jun 08, 2003 7:15 pm
Food is for the weak. NASA shirts last longer!!!

LOL sara you need a new screen name how about NASAshirtadict.
Posted: Mon Jun 09, 2003 10:58 am
Yes, but then I would have 0 posts on that name. I would have to build a new reputation from scratch. I think I will just add NASA shirts to my interests in my profile.
