Just in time for back-to-school shopping, Tax-Free Weekend kicks off once again this Friday. From August 9-11, the Lone Star State is rolling back the sales tax on most clothing, footwear, backpacks and school supplies priced under $100.
This annual holiday is designed to ease the back-to-school shopping burden on families, making it a perfect opportunity to stock up on items for the upcoming school year. Additionally, it’s a great time for anyone looking to refresh their wardrobe or grab a few necessities without the extra cost of tax.
Retailers across Texas, both in stores and online, will be participating in the event, and many are also offering special discounts and promotions for even more savings. Be sure to check the list of qualifying items on the comptroller's website and any store-specific rules to maximize your benefits.
