This holiday provides statewide tax-free purchases for school supplies, art supplies and clothing priced $100 or less per item and computers priced $1,500 or less. This holiday also includes purchases of qualified items sold via mail, telephone, e-mail or Internet if the customer orders and pays for the item and the retailer accepts the order during the holiday for immediate shipment, even if delivery is made after the exemption period.
Consumer Credit Counseling Service (CCCS) of East Tennessee encourages all consumers statewide to begin preparing their shopping lists now to take advantage of the holiday, particularly on higher-ticket retail items that are needed in households this spring or summer.
