Cereal manufacturers in Canada get a tax break if they include free toys in cereal boxes, according to Canada’s Chartered Professional Accountants organization.

However, to qualify for the tax exemption, the toy can’t be beer, liquor or wine, which would be quite the prize if manufacturers actually included that in a box of cereal.

Buying nuts with shells will save you money in England. That’s because there’s a 20 percent value-added tax on shelled nuts. There is an exemption, though, for peanuts — which escape the tax if they’re shelled as long as they’re not salted or roasted, according to British news publication The Telegraph.
