Oh, do you mean that 5% (used to be 3%) tot that was supposed to be paid by the merchant and NOT the end consumer? And who did they think they were kidding when that was passed.
Once upon a time, many years ago - SXM was known as a tax-free duty-free island....... and then they started adding on 'fees' as in departure fee right up to what we have today. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/duh.gif" alt="" />
