I don’t understand why Atmore chose to “OPT” out of this when it is statewide. I’m sure every town would love to charge local sales tax, so next year expect it. Of course I am one of those that chose to shop here and was a little surprised to find I still had to pay 5%, so I saved a whopping $10.00, on $250.00 worth of school clothes. Thank You Atmore…
