One of my abiding memories of buying things in the US is that there is a price displayed for the product and when you get to the till it becomes a different value (as they only include tax at that point).

So unless the goods are in a different city in the store to the till the price should be added on there - I can't imagine that there's a Baarle-Hertog in the US (if anyone ever gets the chance to go there, do...)

At this time Taxes are only collected if you buy things online from the state that you live in. For example, say I live in New York, then only online stores that ship from New York would charge me tax, the other 49 states won't. There is a bill in congress that would like to change this. That is why they can't put the tax on the first page and it has to come later becuse they don't know if your one of the few the need to be charged it. Even if this bill goes through that would still be the case as just about every state charges a diffrent amount.
