The confusion is sometimes places quote you the 'All-in' price with tax, and sometimes they quote you the 'nett' price before taxes and charges. I find that usually for the girls they quote you the 'all-in' price, and for drinks and other things they quote you the 'nett' price. I just wish they would pick one and stick with it to avoid confusion.
