Recently I posted about the Tax Free Holiday starting this week in Florida. I did some research and found that several other states are holding similar tax free holidays too so that you can get all your back to school shopping done for less!
Are you look to save money on your children’s back to school shopping needs? Most tax holidays take place during the month of August to lend parents a hand to get ready for back to school!
Most of these tax-free weeks/weekends include all back to school necessities such as school supplies, clothes, shoes and sometimes even personal computers. Check the list below to see if your state offers a tax-free savings holiday and click on the State links to get more info.
Happy Shopping and Savings!

In Massachusetts we don’t pay tax on clothing unless it’s like over $500. But I live right next to NH which is 100% tax free on clothing & items except for food thats from eating out.
That’s awesome! Is that exemption provided all year round?
Aw awesome…I wish Indiana was on that list.
We dont have any 🙁 So sad!! Darn you WI!!! Must be a midwest thing, we like our taxes lol :/
I would totally take advantage if my state offered it.
My state is not listed
Which State are you in? I left off some that had already passed. Next year I am going to put the list together sooner.
