Every little bit of savings adds up! If you live in an area that is offering 2024 back to school tax free weekends it can definitely be worth waiting to get your large ticket items like computer and clothes.
Check out the list of 2024 Back to School Tax Free weekend dates for each state. There are a few new states this year, including Virginia who took a year off and is back on the list. We also saw a few states extend the number of tax free days, like Florida making it two weeks long!
Whether you want to shop locally in-store or online you’ll get all items tax free during the dates for your state. Sales tax will be calculated based on where your order ships.
Savings Tip: If your area is not running a tax free weekend, shop online and have items mailed to family in other states to get it tax free on their state’s weekend.
