Thrifty Tip Friday!


#159 Take advantage of tax free shopping! I live in Missouri and this weekend is "Tax Free Weekend" for the back to school shopping season. Bella and I are going to do our back to school shopping this weekend to save money on sales tax. We will be armed with our ads to get supplies for the lowest possible cost and coupons for retailers where we are planning on shopping for her back to school wardrobe. In Missouri items that are tax free are as follows:

  • Clothing under $100
  • School supplies under $50
  • Computer software under $350
  • Computers/computer equipment under $3,500
****If you are planning on purchasing a computer, this weekend would be a great time to pick it up!

Here is a list of the other states participating in the Tax Free Weekend (or week)

Alabama
Connecticut
Florida
Iowa
