Back-to-school tax free holiday is this weekend

Parents, students, and teachers can save some cash on school supplies this weekend as part of Florida’s tax free holiday.

Shoppers could show up to all the big retailers in massive crowds because the holiday is shorter this year – just 3 days instead of 10. It runs Friday, August 4th through Sunday, August 6th.

All sales tax is waived this weekend on clothes, shoes, and backpacks less than $60, school supplies under $15, and computers up to $750.

The Florida Retail Federation estimates shoppers will spend $39 million on supplies over the weekend.
