I live in California, and I notice some donut shops charge me a sales tax and some don't, are they suppose to all the time and the ones that don't are picking up the cost in the advertised price?

I think you probably answered your own question - sales tax is covered in the advertised price. You might check next time to see if the ones that charge sales tax, in their ads it says a price "plus tax".

I think some stores -- not just donut stores -- include the sales tax in the price.

i'm only a web customer, in NJ. yet I 've been charged new york sales tax on on line purchases produced from NYC agencies. sellers in another states do not cost me sales tax. to commence with, study the sales tax regulations of the state that's the 'tax abode' of your employer. No small employer i understand of is determined as a lot as assemble and transmit sales tax to all 50 states. frequently they cost sales tax in uncomplicated phrases to voters of the state the position the employer is positioned. yet you want to confirm what YOUR state's regulation calls for.

Fat people buy alot of food, especially donuts. So the government is adding more taxes on the food at the popular donut joints.
As our nation gets fatter ... our government gets richer :-)
FAT=$$$

If you go to Subway, and order a cold sandwich to go, there is no sales tax. Have them toast the bread, then sales tax kicks in. So take it home and toast it at home.

They charge sales tax on the box or bag that you get it in. Food is non-taxable in most states. The cartons, containers, etc, are taxable. That's how fast food gets away with it.

By the Dept of Revenue in the State of WA., donuts and other sweet bakery items are sales tax exempt. Whatever listed on their menu board & that what you pay. But if you dine-in, you might pay some sort of service fee set up by the state that they occasionally come in and audit if we charge tax for dine-in customer...government BS. If they say if it's to go, you pay no tax, I go drive thru at McDonald why I pay tax?

if you get food to go, there is no sales tax. if you stay, there is sales tax. at least in my state anyway.
