Is fringes on front of the tzitzis anything to do with halacha/minhag or its just for niceness ?
Niceness fwiu. But that is actually a halacha.

Is double-fringes & triple-fringes even more mehudar or just going overboard?

If you think a pink floral pattern is nice then that wouldn't be overboard

People say that washing it ruins the fringes. True or not ?

I have a meeting with a woman i want to know if there is any Heter for the door to be closed(with a letter do not disturb) or i have to insist the door should be a little open? i was thinking that maybe because her husband works in the same office should be a Heter but i saw some commentators say that Balo Beir is not a Heter if he gave her permission to be alone with someone behind closed doors but maybe in that situation it's better since he is working Mamesh in the same office. anyone know's anything about that?

any sources on paying for an item or service in cash, knowing that the provider/seller will not report it or pay the tax? It is the responsibility of the seller to charge and pay tax, but am I allowed to pay cash knowing it wont happen?

have you ever sent sales tax money to the government, as a customer? That is the responsibility of the store/merchant

-1.
If you buy something delivered to a state that the seller has no presence, the buyer is responsible.




The buyer is michuyav to pay the tax. The seller is michuyav to collect it (in most cases) for the government.
