2023 Tax Free Shopping Dates
We all know that back to school shopping is right around the corner, not that we are ready to start thinking about that yet, BUT we also want to be prepared for our tax-free shopping dates too.
I am putting all this information here for you so that you can mark your calendars and plan accordingly to save the most money on all your back-to-school needs.
**Be sure to check your local area for any adjustments to these dates or what is included/excluded.
This information came from NERD WALLET, so be sure to check your local area especially if you do not see your area listed.
