Taxes don't change, but shipping prices are creeping up. $5.50 on many things that were $3.50 a few weeks ago, etc. I have taken many things out of my cart in the past after seeing the tax and shipping added to the price of the item. Doesn't sound like much money, but it does add up.

Not every host does this. This just shows how willing she is to stretch and push the card, to make a sale! I've seen many hosts who do not sink to this.
And does the Q watch and discipline? Ummmmm, hardly!

I understand what you're saying. IMO, I don't see any such implication. We are all adults and know everything is taxed. I just bought a new couch and the store people never mentioned tax until I paid for it. That's fine with me because we know tax is always added to the price. I still think it's our responsibility to know how much we're spending.

Just a thought, since Q is based in PA, and PA does not tax clothing (yet) maybe this is the reason why tax is not mentioned.

Thats true, but that's not what's being discussed here. Shawn's example is deceptive!

There is no implication. Every store advertisement, email identifying sales, special product ads, weekly grocery ads, etc, list the price of the items without tax. We're all adults and should know better than to think there isn't tax because they didn't say it.
