    It’s important from a tip perspective. You don’t tip based on tax

      Right. But from what I remember living for about 9 months in Florida, was that prices for everything and anything were given without tax. So if you had a $20 in your pocket and you went to the store for some bullshit snacks for movie night or whatever, you had to do some pretty weird math in your head (x × 1.07, where x is your current total from the price tags) in order to know how much you could spend. Quite annoying.

      Please just give me the real price. The price I need to spend. That’s the only one I need, that really matters in that moment.
