Tax free Sale now going- Sale ends at April 15, 2009

California's last sales tax increase was in 2004 from 8.25% to 8.75%.

Now California is undergoing changes to increase our sales tax on April 1, 2009. Our sales tax will increase from 8.75% to 9.75%. A total of 1% increase. That is at least 11% increase in just 5 years. Is it fair? Is it fair to have such a high sales tax when the pulse of our city is almost obliterated and businesses are dropping like flies? I can't say for everyone, but what I do know is. Small businesses and local producers will continue to despair for survival and stress competing next to big corporations.

But what I can do, is pay for your sales tax for the next month. From March 14th, 2009- April 15, 2009, We will discount all purchases by 9.75%. Sale items or not. They will all have 9.75% discounted at the time of checkout.
