Just did our taxes here in NY and our CPA said the State of New York now wants to know, on the State income tax return, how much money you have spent purchasing things online (NOT just cigarettes - think Amazon.Com, E-Bay,etc.)for which sales tax wasn't collected.

Please tell this to all the, "You stinky smokers oughta quit so you'll live longer and the taxman won't come after you anymore," folks that are likely to chime in.

And they thought that it'd just be about cigarettes. HAH!

Use tax are as old as the sales tax and have always been payable by residents purchasing out of state. The only new thing is smokers thinking they are above the laws just because they cannot resist smoking.
