That’s illegal in a lot of places.

We had a coffee shop that tried to do it. Listed prices included taxes, and the total prices were in nice whole numbers (IE, $2 for a cup of coffee, $5 for a latter, $8 for a sandwich, etc.). But regulators stopped them and they had to go back to listing the prices without the sales tax.

It's frustrating how much needless friction gets put into the system.

Advertising the tax-included price is illegal? Where?

(No snark - serious question, as I'm not from the US, and would love to see the legislation and justification which required that...)

I have seen at some small coffee shops and the like but it’s rare.
