This statement about your cell phone bill confuses me. What kind of cards are you buying that are allowing you to save $5 per phone on your bill?
Also, I'm not so sure how many people shop online just to avoid a sales tax. Where I live there is no sales tax so I don't pay one online. However, if there were a sales tax and I had to pay that tax when I shopped online I would still likely shop online because of the convenience.
I don't doubt that there are people who shop online to avoid a sales tax, but I don't think MOST people are shopping online to avoid a tax.
