Living in Illinois, the only time I ever heard of sales tax savings was in a furniture store offer. Now times are a changing, because for the first time – the state of Illinois is having a sales tax holiday (August 6th – 15th) on school supplies, clothes and shoes worth $100 or less. This gets even better, because 17 states are offering sales tax relief on clothes, shoes, computers, energy products, school supplies and more.
Mark your calendar for your state’s sales tax holiday
Mississippi kicks off its sales tax holiday tomorrow (July 30th – July 31st) on clothes and shoes worth $100 or less. Read SmartMoney.com’s article “More States Offer Sales Tax Relief” and find out if your state is on the list. If your state is participating, mark your calendar to take advantage of these additional savings.
Shopping Tip: Use coupons and other discount offers to maximize your savings.
Ya! I heard about that that the states are offering sales tax relief on few items. I have already marked my calender for the sale tax holiday.
Thanks for sharing

This is a pretty nice deal to take advantage of especially if you live in Chicago, NYC or other major cities where the sales tax is nearly or at 10%. Saving up to $10 on every $100 spent on top of sales prices is a go! Thanks for the tip!
Yes, marking your calendar and taking advantage of sales tax holidays is another great way to save more money.
