People cross over to Jersey from NY all the time to buy clothing
tax free. I assume they are supposed to report that purchase on their
tax forms. Good luck with that. Harr.


Be sure to pay cash?


I don't even think they could track it with credit cards,
but it's probably not a bad idea. Would be a hell of an
undertaking.

Funny thought, not quite related, though, when I was dating
my ex I stayed at his parent's house in Jersey once in a while,
it was close to where I worked. One Sunday I was in a 7-11
type store, picked up a few things. Among them a pair of
stockings for work the next day. The clerk said, I can't sell these
to you. ??? Uh ... then he said, well, okay, but we're not supposed
to sell clothing on Sunday. Oh for pete's sake.

Those were some old day rules I am glad are gone.
