Kicking It Off with Sales Tax

Couldn't go 3 days into the new year without buying something... some button-cell batteries for a project of mine.

The receipt has one line for "Tax" reads "$0.32", but it actually breaks down three ways:

NY Sales Tax (4%): $0.16
County Sales Tax (3.75%): $0.15
MTA Tax (0.375%): $0.01

But breaking it out per blog post is tedious, so I'll just record 8.125% and break it out during the monthly summaries.
