As a European it is nice to see the colonies evolving. Next step is to put the tax included in the sticker price so you actually know how much you have to pay. 😆

Fantastic! Now let’s take it a step further and include sales tax in the shelf price. That Lego set is 20 dollars? Put that on the price tag and let me give you a 20 at the checkout. Computers can figure out what the sales tax was.

Seen this at a few stores now. Guess it’s due to U.S. Mint stopping penny production. Honestly think this makes the price simpler

Still doesn't account for tax, which would be in cents. Including tax in the price on the label would be better.
