2009 Sales Tax Holidays
Save Money on Back-to-School Shopping Through Sales Tax Holidays

By Apryl Duncan, About.com

Stretch your back-to-school shopping budget during sales tax holidays near you. Use this complete list to see which states are participating, what types of items are eligible and if neighboring states have better deals.

Saving the Most Money on Back-to-School Shopping

Saving money during the sales tax holiday requires more than your credit card. Bargain hunting makes you feel like a detective when clothes are exempt from one state's sales tax and clothes, school supplies and computers are exempt in another state's tax free holiday.

Tax free shopping can lead to a lot of surprises at the register if you're not prepared. Learning more about your state's eligible items, dollar limits and how you can benefit from visiting neighboring states can help you be a smart tax free shopper.
