Michael Alvarez+FollowChicago grocery tax: What’s really changing?That 1% grocery tax Illinois just scrapped? Don’t celebrate too soon—many towns (over 600!) are jumping in with their own grocery taxes, and whether you pay extra now depends on where you shop. In Chicago, the City Council is debating whether to keep the local tax to avoid a major budget shortfall. Meanwhile, new rules are kicking in statewide, from stronger protections for the Mahomet Aquifer to limits on hotel toiletry bottles and more support for firefighters and libraries. If you’re shopping or running a store, double-check your local tax rates—this patchwork could mean big differences at the checkout! #Food #Chicago #GroceryTax00Share
