SalesTax

This is my first venture into learning java in response to the below coding challenge.
This is a simple sales tax caluclator using regex to identify patterns from user input.

I used this as an opportunity to not only learn java but also JUnit and as an exercise
in making a simple application object oriented and extendable.

Write an application that prints out the receipt details for these shopping baskets.

INPUT:

Input 1:
1 book at 12.49
1 music CD at 14.99
1 chocolate bar at 0.85

Input 2:
1 imported box of chocolates at 10.00
1 imported bottle of perfume at 47.50

Input 3:
1 imported bottle of perfume at 27.99
