VAT refund
Israel has a tax that is similar to a sales tax, called a Value Added Tax (VAT or ma'am in Hebrew), amounting to 15.5% in 2008. Some shops are authorized to provide a VAT refund to tourists for purchases over $100. For more information, go to this Israeli government link and scroll to Number 6. Please note that this tax does not apply in Bethlehem or Jericho, which are not part of Israel.
