I am confused as there should be no tax on cereal...at least there is no tax on the receipt on front of me.

I got a SCOP at SDM for Vitamin D Tablets as they should have been $7.49 rather than the $10.99 they rang in at. I still managed to get the 18,500 bonus points as I was still just above the $50.00.

This is a picture of the receipt from the cereal transaction. This was what the people at the Customer service desk told me, since they do not control the taxes, the government is the one who has put it there. Now I know at least if I can dispute them on tax or not.

Maybe they are classifying it as a snack item as there was no tax on my Mini Wheats. You should not be paying tax on FPC's which I am assuming they were. If you definitely want to avoid paying tax on FPC's head over to SDM and they will ring it in with coupon code 2002.

Cereal is non-taxable but granola bars are and cereal bars aren't...is granola taxable like granola bars?

Granola. That's the answer.
Receipt says Vector granola.
The sneaky government does not tax cereal but they do tax granola.
