If you live in the Lone Star State like myself and Joystiq's managing editor JC Fletcher, you have no doubt spent many years enjoying one of our state's most prosperous traits: All Amazon purchases made in Texas are sales-tax free. Well, at least until the first of July.
Amazon and state comptroller Susan Combs have reached an agreement wherein Amazon will create 2,500 jobs, contribute $200 million in capital investment and begin collecting sales tax on all purchases made by Texans effective July 1, according to the Austin-American Statesman (http://www.statesman.com/blogs/content/shared-gen/blogs/austin/theticker/entries/2012/04/27/state_amazon_settle_sales_tax.html). So, if you live in Texas and have been putting off a rather large purchase, maybe think about getting a move on it. Otherwise, check out our favorite webcomics from last week and vote for your favorite after the break.
