What is the sales tax rate for personal grooming and hygiene products?

Beginning September 1, 2009, the tax base for personal grooming and hygiene products will change.  These items will be taxed as general merchandise (high rate) whether or not they make a medicinal claim (unless sold as a result of a prescription).

For more information on what products are affected by this change, see the FY 2010-01 Informational Bulletin.
