Tax Free Weekend!

So it's that time of year again! Are you ready? Back to school is around the corner and this weekend kicks off tax free shopping in many states! If you live in or nearby a state that offers a tax free weekend (or week) you can save a considerable amount of money by planning your back-to-school shopping or large purchases around these dates.

I have listed below each state that offers sales tax holidays and the dates the events are offered in 2010. If your state is listed for a tax free holiday, be sure to check what items in your state qualify for the savings.
