Q: We live in the state of NY, right down the road from our house is a local gas/convenience station. My Bf and I just went in the other day and asked the Hindu fellow behind the counter, " why is it that very time we go to purchase snacks, food and everything but gas, does the receipt read gas?" I find this very annoying and I think what they are doing is illegal, I like to see my receipts specify exactly what I purchased,( itemized) for my own personal information. Is there a website or phone number where I can contact someone to see if this is an illegal practice?
A: It may be just the way the register prints all sales. It isn't illegal unless they are charging a different sales tax on your purchases. Food is not taxable in a grocery store unless it's prepared foods. You should just shop at a different location if this one is ticking you off for some reason.
