With regards to electronics, Amazon is still plenty cheaper than Best Buy,
even with sales tax. Ever since I had a Best Buy sales person volunteer me for
a "payment protection plan" on a camera (pay them $4.95/month,
and if you can't
make the payments, you get to give them the camera back, no questions asked --
and no refund!)

I got a copy of the form after several calls, and it wasn't my initials on the
form! Several calls later, and they made it seem like they were doing me a
favor removing *their* fraudulent charges.

So, I'll pay sales tax - and still use Best Buy as my internet showroom.   :)
