BUY/DONATE STUFF the WW&F NEEDS on AMAZON!!
Graham Buxton:
OK, I followed through on the extension cord purchase. If anyone is interested to follow up, its Amazon #111-2618406-7329831
I note that the sales tax I was charged on a $29.95 purchase was only $1.65, rather than the typical 9.75% TN sales tax for items delivered to TN where I live. 8) (I really can't complain about TN sales tax too much, as in the long run, overall TN total tax rates are relatively low.) ;D

That would be Maine's 5.5% use tax (which is identical to the sales tax). Amazon has gotten pretty good about collecting the right taxes, and they (rightly) collect it based on shipping address.
Ed Lecuyer:
If someone wants to pay NO tax on their donated goods, feel free to ship it to me in New Hampshire (PM me for address) and I will deliver it to Sheepscot.
Live Free or Die! (at least for now, until I move to Maine.)
