I remember when Massachusetts did not have a sales tax. Going into Filene's Bargain Basement, purchasing an item for 99¢ - no tax

Really?? Even I don't remember that.

I love living in the tax free state of Delaware. On the rare occasions that I do travel out of state and happen to make a purchase - it really throws me off. The only sales tax we pay here is a one time tax on the purchase of a motor vehicle, and that is based on the price of it. We also have no luxury or personal property tax.

Ah, but I am older than you, Ellie. I remember taking the train to Boston, probably with my mom, as I think I was in my early teens. Bought a crinoline petticoat - remember them? It was in the Bargain Basement, the price was 99¢ - got a penny back.

Douglas likes the no tax Delaware - maybe we should move there

A few years older - not enough to even make a big difference at our age!

Oh yeah - I remember those itchy, scratchy petticoats very well. If one wasn't "poofy" enough - we would sometimes wear 2 or 3 at a time! That's one style I hope never comes back around.

I'd love to have you as a neighbor! Living is pretty darn cheap here too. And you'd be close to the ocean...

Grace, Ellie, you 2 crack me up when you get started on old RI tales!

I don't think I would copy ALL of them onto DVD, but yes I will copy some!

Where on earth do you take vcr tapes to get them copied to dvds? My vcr croaked and I'm like everyone else have tons of tapes I love but can no longer watch.

Sent you a PM. The Walmart link from this thread on Page 1, the 3rd one down offers this feature. It costs $158. You can find places near you where you take in the VCR tapes and they will copy them to DVD for you. Around here, they are $20 per. If I do 8, I break even!

Once a Rhode Islander - always a Rhode Islander! And we even consider imports from MA as "real" Rhode Islanders, too!

I am pretty sure my mom did it for at least 20 videos, and it was a very simple procedure. I don't know how to do it, personally, but I know it was better than spending a ton of money!
