It's the same thing with restaurants and tipping. They want you to see the lowest number possible when choosing what to spend money on. Then you pay a 20% fee on top of that for some reason.

I guess you have in the US an automatism to add some tax to the price but what we see is 10$ and do not take into account the + 8.27% tax + 15% tip. (the tax is made up, I never knew what to add)

- jonlucc 7y agoYou can never know what to add for tax, because there are often local taxes that can be higher for one municipality than another. Even then, within a municipality, they can have a higher tax on a single intersection or shopping center.
- jjeaff 7y agoOn top of that, most places have different tax rates depending on the product you are buying. Food or grocery or electronics could all have a different rate.
