Another sales tax holiday, this one for back-to-school, starts tomorrow, August 9th.
The Comptroller encourages all taxpayers to support Texas businesses while saving money on tax-free purchases of most clothing, footwear, school supplies and backpacks (sold for less than $100) during the annual Tax-Free weekend. Qualifying items can be purchased tax free from a Texas store or from an online or catalog seller doing business in Texas. In most cases, you do not need to give the seller an exemption certificate to buy qualifying items tax free.
This year’s sales tax holiday begins Friday, Aug. 9, and goes through midnight Sunday, Aug. 11.
The sales tax exemption applies only to qualifying items you buy during the sales tax holiday. Items you buy before or after the sales tax holiday do not qualify for exemption, and there is no tax refund available.
Qualifying Items
Clothing and Footwear Face Masks Backpacks School Supplies
So if you need clothes, paper, etc., you can save some money this weekend.

I was pleasantly surprised to discover that through Thursday, August 8, Ohio has a tax-free cap of $500, 5x that of Texas. So, to help instruct my daughters in the genteel art of shooting, I bought a .22 pistol at a nice discount and paid no tax.
When the oldest girl becomes 21, I will gift it to her.
