Of all the mercantile groups in New York State that are being puzzled by directives concerning the new sales tax that becomes effective on Sunday, none is having" a gloomier outlook than the drug stores.
Generally speaking, the new fund-railing device collects the tax on sale of cosmetics and toiletries and on medical equipment and supplies. Drugs and medicines are exempt That sounds simple enough, but even if the pharmacists themselves were capable of absorbing all the directives, the general public would remain bewildered — and argumentative.
As part of the public preparation for the impost that, was once classified as a "nuisance" tax, Amsterdam area pharmacists have been asking patrons a few questions as to how'this or that should be classified—as a luxury or a necessity. Comparisons of the popular interpretations as. against the official pronouncements have led to some interesting debates.
Toothbrush Taxable A toothbrush and toothpaste,
for instance. Necessity or luxury? They must be luxuries because they are both taxable. Keeping those uppers and Towers in place? A luxury.
Everything in the shavings preparations class is taxable. With one exceptions, styptic. Stopping the flow of blood is a necessity.
Deodorants, however necessary In some instances, are still classified as a luxury by the tax-gatherers. First aid products might be considered a necessity in some cases but they are taxable, nevertheless. Eye drops are exempt, but eye washes are taxable. All rubber goods are taxable.
Do your lips chap? That's a luxury despite the discomfort. If the hair is dry or oily, or if it is falling, the preparations used in treatment are taxable. Talcum powder,' unless the can says it is a medicated powder, is going to need two cents- on the dollar in this area.
You may try to remove those corns and calluses without being taxed but cushion pads are not exempt. Coughs' and cold remedies, including cough drops are exempt, also that. plaster used for lame back. Better ward off these things with vitamins that are exempt. Rose water and glycerine) make an old-fashioned skin preparation that in fiscal consideration are taxable. It's the fragrance that is a luxury. Buy the glycerine alone and there is no tax.
Hypodermic syringes .are, strangely enough, taxable, even for those who would gladly forego their use. Feminine necessities in greatest uss are tax
able, and the luxuries of delicacy are exempt.
Even if a taxable item is purchased on prescription, the state is to get a share of the purchase price, along with the doctor and pharmacy.
Keep a supply of pennies handy. If the item is more than a quarter, (26 cents up) a cent is to be added. If more than 65 cents, add two cents. These fractional figures (26 and 66) are Important because they still apply for parts of dollars when the purchase price reaches $2 or $3 or more.
