If you’re on a budget, or you simply love a great deal then mark you calendar - Florida’s sales tax holiday is Friday, August 12th through Sunday, August 14th.
So what can you buy that is exempt from sales tax? Quite a bit actually!
- Clothing, wallets and certain bags (handbags, backpacks, fanny packs and diaper bags) having a sales price of $75 or less each.
-
Footwear having a sales price of $75 or less.
-
School supplies having a sales price of $15 or less per item.
I plan on taking advantage of this tax break – I’m making my list now of what I need (work shirts, gym shoes, and maybe even a few new ties)! Feel free to share what you’re excited to purchase and your favorite store.

Some shoes from DSW are on my list. Easy to find things under $75 there!
Thanks, I plan on purchasing supplies for my home office.
Patricia, that reminds me, I should stock up on batteries. Especially since hurricane season is here!
Thanks.
