Have to admit when I saw it coming on the USPS informed delivery email, I was quite curious what it could be about.
There was a $10 shop card inside and the letter states it’s to cover the cost of sales taxes charged on the discount amount for lightbulbs purchased in NJ, and any inconvenience this may have caused.
I have a vague idea what is meant. If lightbulbs were $10, but the net sale was $2 with discounts, apparently they charged sales tax on the $10, not the $2. LED light bulbs are crazy cheap
in NJ. A set for the chandelier was like $2.xx, with 6 filament bulbs. They’re always marked down like that.
I will try not to spend the entire $10 on hot dogs and Pepsi.
