Tax Free Shopping This Weekend

Texas shoppers get a break from state and local sales taxes on August 21, 22 and 23 - the state's annual tax holiday.

Effective this year, in addition to clothes, footwear and some backpacks, Texas families also get a sales tax break on most school supplies priced at less than $100 purchased for use by a student in an elementary or secondary school.

For a List of Clothing, Footwear and Backpacks, and Their Exemption Status, go to
