Several states are offering sales tax holidays to help families save on back-to-school shopping. In Texas, from August 9-11, items like clothing and school supplies priced under $100 will be tax-free, saving shoppers about $8 per $100 spent. Ohio has extended its tax holiday from July 30 to August 8, with a new cutoff of $500 per item, allowing savings on higher-priced items like laptops and winter coats. Florida's tax holiday runs from July 29 to August 11, with exemptions on personal computers up to $1,500 and school supplies under $50. These tax holidays are designed to ease the financial burden on parents during the back-to-school season.
