A place for my thoughts. Maybe yours. Maybe we can talk. It's up to you and whether or not you post here.

Just don't be a jerk.

There's no sales tax on unprepared food in this state (I'm also paying by EBT with food stamps) and the CRV for the can is only $0.05. where the fuck is the other 41 cents coming from? ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

Without showing your receipt, we can't know. I'm not from CA but that's damn near 10%, so I'd wager the store has incorrectly applied the CA+LA sales tax of 9.5% to your purchase.

I didn't get a receipt. I just went somewhere else that didn't try and add the sales tax to things that shouldn't. Ironically, I only went into the first place because it should have been cheaper.

Wondering what comes in a can that costs that much these days.

That is a lot of money for soup! Sorry to hear it.

I mean, it's a giant family sized can. Not like a single serving of Progresso. lol

Why don't you check the receipt?
