Do you ever feel ripped off in the marketplace? Do you understand Pennsylvania’s amusing and confusing sales tax applications? When you pump a gallon of gas, how do you know that that is what you received? Are inflation and “shrinkflation” impacting your budget? When selecting merchandise, do you have to hunt for the price? Have you ever been overcharged at a scanner checkout register? Your shopping trips will never be the same after this entertaining and enlightening presentation packed with important consumer information.
