We used to get the sales tax refunded, but they don't do that anymore.
We buy gas in Plattsburg on the way up, and again in Plattsburg on the way back. We don't have to buy gas in Quebec.
What does Quebec do with all that gas tax money? They obviously don't spend it on repairing the roads!
There is no tax on clothes or shoes in NJ. Yea!
and the most maddening, the gas you buy in plattsburgh is for the most part brewed at the suncor refinery in montreal!
myself even when going to plattsburgh i make the detour across to alburg to get cheap gas, its often a LOT cheaper over there, there is a reason there are 2 gas stations as you come off the bridge on the vermont side
