I bought a bottle of scotch and a six pack. Listed prices were high but we were right by the beach so I was willing to pay the $55 for the two items. But, whoa, the old guy tells me the price is $75. What?!?!?!? I asked how he got that amount and he told me Florida sales tax is 8%, Singer Island tax is 4 more percent for a total of 12% tax and that the store charges 15% on top of that for using a credit card. I tell him that Florida sales tax is only 6% (I am a resident of Florida) and that I will pay cash. He still charges me a total of 12% sales tax but takes off the abusive credit card charges.

Read moreI was staying at one of the hotels on the island, and was walking over to the beach when I stopped in here to just grab a coke. While I was already in there, I wanted to grab a few other things for later that night. I didn't want to go back to the store on my way back from the beach when I was wet & sandy- but I also didn't want to drag of all of my bottles down to the beach with me. I explained to the owner my predicament, and she offered to hold my purchase until I was done with the beach, and I could come back and pick it up at my leisure. I was utterly blown away by this friendliness, as the previous owner would never have done anything like that. The new owners are super nice & friendly, and I definitely...
