The only year I've ever watched that, she gave away a Pontiac G6 to everyone in the audience, plus all the other goodies.

And stuck them with the sales tax that they couldn't pay for.

Well, if you can't afford the sales tax for a $17K car, you probably can't afford to drive it, either.

Those must be some super good brownies w/ all the brownies she eats!

 

[HRDTLBRO]

There better be some dank weed in those brownies...that crap is expensive.

Cry me a river. Gotta pay sales tax on a $17k brand new car that someone got for free. Boo hoo, life is so hard.

If you can't afford the sales tax, sell the freakin' car. It didn't cost you a nickel, even if you unloaded it for $10k to an extremely happy buyer, you'd make a huge profit.

stosh; Oprah's "favorite things" show is a once a year Christmas special where she chooses all of her favorite things and gives one each to every member of the audience. Audience usually makes out with a minimum of a couple thousand dollars worth of merchandise.

There's no way to actually get tickets to the show. Either the show is on a random date, or you get randomly chosen - can't remember which.

Gotcha - someone told me that it was a "general public" show like all the rest of her shows but apparently not.

I don't think you get to take the car till you pay the tax and registration. (I could be wrong though... anyone know?).

Of course most teachers can barely afford a VW bug...

It wasn't just the sales tax. It's also taxed as $17K taxable income + prize tax (usually about 15% or something; someone else probably has better numbers).
