Tax Free Holiday kicks off this weekend

The highly anticipated tax-free weekend is just around the corner, promising big savings for all.

As the back-to-school season kicks in, everyone is gearing up to take advantage of the tax-free holiday that runs Friday and Saturday.

The tax-free weekend applies to a variety of items with a primary focus on back-to-school. Shoppers can take advantage of tax-free deals on clothing and footwear.

Families also can enjoy significant discounts on school supplies, including notebooks, backpacks, pencils, and more.

However, it’s not just about school supplies. Gulfport Premium Outlet Manager Pam Meinzinger said, “Anything that’s $100 or less qualifies, apparel, clothing, shoes, socks, purses, anything that you can think of apparel wise qualifies for the tax free as long as it’s under $100.”
