Apart from Marks and Spencer (but that is not JUST a shop
). They realised that we aren't stupit and did away with that a long time ago. Also here the ticket price is what you pay unless it is somewhere which deals mainly with trade where they may show ex-VAT price.
So when I first went to the states and was ignorant of Sales Tax I thought it was rip off a tourist time..
