If so why didn't you say something at that time?
I go by a gas station every morning to get a paper on the way to work and they never charge me a tax on it...I think I'll go by walmart in the morning to see if your information is correct or if its a myth.
Surely if walmart is taxing a non tax item there would be a FB page protesting it....right?
If not I will start one after I go and check out your information and then we can start talking about how much the schools stand to loose because walmart is reducing there sales tax revenue that is coming from the sale of newspapers. I guess I need to go and buy more paper for my kids homework to be copied on if they loose that tax revenue.

Maybe you should have stocked up on the "tax free" day you get for buying school supplies.
