Let’s hear it for Tax free New Hampshire. Where the price is the price, no sales tax and you can have all the guns and alcohol you want and all from the same store.;) New Hampshire runs state run liquor stores and other means of generating income, there’s no sales tax so a phone costing $899 costs $899. There are a few states like this. Other states where income isn’t taxed and so on and so forth.
