Several U.S. states are offering tax-free shopping weekends to help families save money on back-to-school supplies. South Carolina's Tax Free Weekend, scheduled from August 2-4, 2024, includes items like computers, clothing, and school supplies, expected to save shoppers over $1.8 million in sales tax. Oklahoma and New Mexico also offer tax-free weekends on similarly essential items, with price limits on clothing and school supplies. Ohio extends its tax-free period to over a week, covering a wider range of items, including restaurant meals. Florida's tax holiday runs from July 29 to August 11, with exemptions on school-related and personal items. These initiatives aim to provide financial relief as families prepare for the new school year.
