Tax Free Holidays

Take advantage of tax free holidays! Alabama, Arkansas, Connecticut, Georgia, Iowa, Louisiana, Maryland, Missouri, New Mexico, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, and Virginia all have tax free holidays in August (Mississippi has their tax free holiday in July). Each state varies, but most drop the sales tax on clothing, shoes and school supplies for a day or a weekend. Most retailers also have 20% to 40% off sales at the same time. There are limits to the amounts, so you will need to check with your state to see what you can purchase, tax free.
