Purchased anything anyplace lately?
Frustrated with the bag charges?
The LEGISLATURE MANDATED THE BAG CHARGE.
If you are noticing increases to prices, here are a few of the reasons:
- Gross Receipts Tax (Commercial Activities Tax)
- Based on the gross amount not the profit of the company.
- Calculated after the first 1 million gross sales
- Minimum wage increase
- Plastic bag ban
Just a few businesses challenges.
Upcoming price increases:
- Cap and Trade
- Projected 28 cent per gallon gas price increase

Exposure to biological and chemical contaminants can pose serious health consequences, and failure to properly remove such substances can contribute to unhealthy and dangerous environments.
The impulse to clean up quickly yourself can be strong but the proper steps and procedures must be followed.
