Maryland Sales Tax to Increase on Thursday
GET READY TO PAY a little more for items and services purchased in Maryland.
As The Sun reminds readers today, a 20-percent sales-tax increase, the first such hike since 1977, will take effect on Thursday:
Consider a pack of gum.Business owners across the state have been adjusting their cash registers to account for the new sales tax rules.If your favorite chicle-based confection costs from 41 cents to 60 cents, the tax to be applied under the old formula was 3 cents. Starting tomorrow, the 3-cent levy applies to gum that costs 34 cents to 50 cents. Chewing gum between 51 cents and 66 cents will now take a 4-cent tax.
