Free Tax Weekend!!

I know that this is late, since the Free Tax Weekend starts tomorrow 8/19 - 8/21.

For Texas, sorry almost all other states...

You maybe asking yourself... How does this Benefit me?!? I'm glad you asked. 

 Tax Free Weekend is something to be super excited about, this means that for every $100 you spend on qualified items you save the 8.25% in taxes. Not to mention all the great sales that many stores are having, this means more savings for you! 

Items that qualify for these savings are :

- School supplies under $100

- Clothing under $100

- Footwear under $100

- Backpacks under $100

* For more information and a detailed list of qualified items you can log on HERE

However, the down side to all the savings are the large Crowds! If you can imagine everyone and their dog is out shopping trying to save money. Who can blame them? I can't .. but it can become a headache to try to fight the crowds. Good Luck if you do decide to venture out in to the shopping world this weekend!!
