Tax free weekend is this weekend and you know what that means, every where is going to be packed this weekend. Even with that said you can cash in on some good deals though.
Here are some things to remember while you head out this weekend.
- Use coupons as much as possible – Lots of retailers still except coupons during tax fee weekend. Khol’s, JC Penny, and Bed Bath and Beyond are among some of the stores that except coupons this weekend.
- Buy big ticket items that are less than $100 – Try and snag some backpacks and big winter coats during tax free weekend. Did you know if the item costs more than $100 you will get charged the tax on that item?
- Shop Online – Do you hate those massive lines, and fighting for parking? Just shop online, but remember to use those coupons still.
- Don’t buy things that aren’t tax exempt – You would think this would be a no brainer, but stores are tricky at what they do. DON’T DO IT!
- Place or pay for a layaway order – Just placing or paying for your layaway order this weekend will keep you tax free. Just something to think about.
A lot of athletic wear is not tax free this weekend. Cleats and other items like this aren’t tax free. Be sure to check at TexasTaxHoliday.Org for all of the fine print on what is and isn’t tax free.
