Amazon & the Use Tax
South Carolina has a “use tax” on things that are purchased outside SC, but “used” in SC. This traditionally includes online purchase. I usually throw the state a few bones for my online purchases, but have never fully itemized my spending. I intended on doing the same this year, but Amazon had to go ahead and send me an email disclosing the full amount I spent on items delivered to me in SC. So thanks Amazon, for screwing my ability to evade taxes this year.
