TEXAS SALES TAX HOLIDAY BEGINS TODAY
Parents and kids looking to save a little cash on their back-to-school shopping can save money on certain items priced under $100 during the state's annual sales tax holiday, which begins to today and runs through Sunday.
The law exempts most clothing, footwear, school supplies and backpacks priced under $100 from sales tax, which could save shoppers about $8 on every $100 they spend during the weekend.
Lists of apparel and school supplies that may be purchased tax-free can be found on the Comptroller's website at TexasTaxHoliday.org.
This year, shoppers will save an estimated $87 million in state and local sales taxes during the sales tax holiday.
The tax holiday weekend has been an annual event since 1999.
