Tax-Free Shopping is yet anothe reason to visit Portland, Oregon

Maybe it is because I live in the place in question, but I rarely think of sales tax-free shopping as being one of the top attractions in Portland, Oregon. I think of the amazing nature that surrounds the city, the many wonderful brewpubs, the excellent public transportations system, the safe and clean streets, and, of course, the best bookstore in the universe, Powells.

All of these things make the Rose City a special place in which to live and a great place to visit. Throw in that little fact that there is no sales tax here and I can see why Southwest Airlines is promoting Portland as the place to come to do your holiday shopping.

So come here to shop or come here to say hello to me. Either way you’ll get your money’s worth by visiting Portland.
