Get ready to shop for one weekend without the extra charges because the State of Tennessee has announced its annual sales tax holiday. Starting on Friday, July 26, through Sunday, July 28, Tennessee shoppers can indulge in some savings by making tax-free purchases on select items. According to the City of Germantown, the offer includes certain clothing, school supplies, art supplies, and computers.
During this time, most general apparel, such as shirts, pants, dresses, shoes, and accessories priced at $100 or less per item, will be exempt from sales tax. This break from taxation also extends to school and art supplies like binders, backpacks, crayons, and pens, as long as they're $100 or less per item. Tech-savvy shoppers can also look forward to snagging computers — including laptops and tablets — priced at $1,500 or less without the burden of the usual taxes.
Educators and parents gearing up for the upcoming school year can sigh relief as they buy supplies in bulk. The website provides crucial insights to help consumers plan their shopping strategically and make the most of these government-provided economic reprieves.
