This is very helpful. Thank you!
Yay! You’re very welcome, Tammy! Glad to hear that. 🤗💗
Does Idaho ever offer this?
Hey Stacy! I did some digging, and though Idaho may have offered this in the past, it seems they don’t have a scheduled tax-free holiday happening in 2023. Bummer! We’ll keep our eyes peeled for any updates! ❤️
Thank you Jessica!
You’re so welcome! 💓
Does GA offer it for 2023?
Hey Natallie! I searched a bit on this, and it seems that Georgia isn’t included in the sales tax holiday for 2023. 😔 Hoping they may be included for the following year! 🤞💗
Figures, our governor doesn’t offer this. She only gives to the city, not our STATE. They should make the city it’s own state. We need a governor that helps the people beyond her zip code
I can only imagine you’re talking about New York. If not, add it to the list!
Here is the news for Mass https://www.mass.gov/info-details/sales-tax-holiday-frequently-asked-questions
It’s a hit or miss. Last year when I shopped online for clothes it wasn’t taxed. This year during the tax free dates for my state, all the clothes online was taxed. It’s strange! They need to fix the issue!
Oh no! Thanks so much for sharing how it worked for you this year online, Judy. ❤️ Hoping you might be able to get in contact with the company you purchased from to find out if the tax collection was correct on your order. 🤞
What are the tax-free dates in Virginia, please? And which stores?
Thank you!
Hey there! It seems Virginia doesn’t have a scheduled tax-free holiday happening in 2023. Hoping they might be included next year! 🤞💕
Ohio is July 30th-August 8th it is a week long this year. I clicked on the site you listed.
Thanks for noticing that, Tammie. The post has been updated. 💕
