Just a reminder to everyone, especially the "newbies" to pellet stoves....there is NO tax on pellets. I've seen a few posts where people have mentioned being charged tax, or the dealer said they were going to give someone a "deal" and not charge them any tax. I'm pretty sure this isn't just in NY where I am.
I mentioned in another thread about an incident a few weeks back in my local Wally World, where the employees were charging everyone tax. I called them on it, and they started to give me crap, saying everything gets taxed.
Funny thing...as soon as I asked them to get the store manager, they backed right down. I think the "tax" $ was going into somebody's pockets.
Be aware everyone!
EDIT: If anyone DID get charged tax, and you still have the receipt/charge slip, go back and demand your tax $ back...don't let them get away with it!
EDIT #2: New York pellet heads....Make sure you scroll down through this thread....I found out later that there ARE places in NYS that can charge tax on pellets....I put the link in the later post, but here it is again....look at Part 2:
