I'm pretty pumped.
Even though it can be a bit like Black Friday sometimes, the money flows and I like it.
...
what do you mean about that?
...
that his business is covering the taxes on purchases.
...
Certain states in the North east have been known to have a statewide no tax day where the state taxes are forgiven on all purchases for the day. From houses to candy bars, no state tax. Its a move to inspire commerce.

We just had ours(in florida), for school supplies... too bad it was the weekend inbetween pay checks... 😢
...
Massachusetts has a tax free weekend once a year.

duh, stupid me. And yes, they are f'ing ridiculous.
...
well you could move to oregon and every DAY is tax free.. we have no sales tax at all but our income tax is appartly higher so its a give and take. would you prefer to have higher taxes off your paycheck or have to pay extra at a store?
...
higher sales tax. we dont have a state income tax, we tax sales. let the tourist pay our taxes! yea florida
...
i hear that since we have a high tourism rate too but its kinda nice not having to do math everytime you go to the store with sales tax. do you have it on groceries too or just regular stuff cause thats how it is in california
...
some groceries... its kinda odd, ya a bit of math is involved... its 6%, so i do 10%(move the . one place over), then take half of that and add it to the total for a guestimate...
...
Oregon has no sales taxes all year long. 🙂
...
oops sorry just noticed someone already said that. I like the fact that the state taxes are taken out of my check rather than paying sales tax cuz then I don't see it so I dont really miss it and I pay what it says on the price tag. 🙂
