Now, I ain’t seen no official “Tax-Free Ferragamo Belt” plastered anywhere, but lemme tell ya, where there’s a will, there’s a way. You gotta be sneaky, think outside the, uh, belt box, I guess.
I mean, think about it. You got Saks OFF 5TH blasting deals left and right, up to 70% off! Sounds pretty tax-free-ish to me, especially if you’re scoring a deal that good. Maybe the discount basically covers the tax, ya know? Like a hidden tax-free blessing. Plus, free shipping? That’s gotta save you *something*, right? It’s practically like they’re paying *you* to wear their belts.
And then you got Nordstrom, slinging free shipping and returns. Now, while that ain’t directly tax-free, the *convenience* is priceless. No gas money to get to the store, no time wasted browsing…that’s gotta be worth some tax savings in itself, right? You’re saving time, which is money, which you don’t have to pay in taxes! Genius!
Plus, a little birdy told me (okay, it was FARFETCH, but still) that they got express shipping. So, you get your belt FAST. You could even argue that the faster you get it, the quicker you can wear it, thus boosting your overall happiness and productivity, leading to a better job and more money, which…okay, maybe I’m stretching it a bit. But you get the idea! Speed equals savings, equals less tax burden, somehow.
And let’s be honest, these belts are “Made in Italy,” so there’s gotta be some kind of loophole SOMEWHERE. Italians are smart. They probably figured out how to sneak a tax-free option in there somewhere. I wouldn’t put it past ’em.
