I'm considering doing my holiday shopping online, and had heard that it's tax-free, but most sites seem to be charging taxes, so I was wondering how much the cost difference would be compared to going to the store.

If there is no store located in your state, there will be no tax charged to you. (unless the store is a national retailer)
Search these sites for any product and SAVE while you shop!
I am a "semi"-retired project manager who spent 20 years in the banking and credit card industry. Believe me, I know how to negotiate and SAVE $$$! I do ALL my shopping on-line and never have a problem...
These sites allow me to save on all of my on-line purchases. They cover all merchants so I never need to go out and spend GAS money! The shipping and handling is almost always free! These sites allow you to combine the discounts with coupons and other saving sites, like airline points and others.
I receive money back every month via PayPal and you can too! Just tell everyone you know about them and use them for shopping needs!
All sites have special offers and coupons as well as the rebates and referral cash back deals!

If you like these and join, let me know and I will share another favorite site that compares the rebates sites for any given store at the time you are shopping and tells you which one has the BEST or Highest Cash BACK at that time. It also has extra coupons!
HAPPY NEW YEAR TOO!

If I owned a company, I would offer a 1-800 number and inform individuals that they could order over the phone and that it would cost them a "3% convenience fee". That 3% would go towards covering the operators I would need to hire to take the orders. So, customers would * look * for what they wanted online, but they wouldn't * buy * online. Problem solved. Customers still get screwed, but not as badly. Gov't doesn't get squat.

Ebay is tax free if you are ordering out of state. The problem with online shopping is you'll make up the difference with the shipping costs!

If the company you are ordering from has any kind of facility in your state then they have to charge sales tax, otherwise they don't. Since for example ToysRUs and Barnes and Noble have retail stores almost everywhere, you will pay sales tax ordering online from them. For amazon.com for example, or many other companies that are purely online sellers, most states you won't.
