Florida Back to School Tax Holiday 2011!

I am very excited that Florida is doing this again this year!

Back-to-School Sales Tax Holiday, August 12-14
Florida's back-to-school sales tax holiday will begin at 12:01 a.m., Friday, August 12, 2011, and end at midnight Sunday, August 14, 2011. During this period, no sales tax will be collected on sales of clothing, footwear, and certain accessories selling for $75 or less, or on certain school supplies selling for $15 or less. Find out more at http://dor.myflorida.com/dor/. There is a frequently asked questions link and a list of taxable and tax-exempt items.  For example, diaper and diaper bags are exempt, but watches and jewelry are not.  I think I will print a copy of the guidelines to bring with me when I shop that weekend!

No taxes on stuff we need for 3 days - I think I will shop early in the morning to avoid crowds, but it may be worth it!  Family Approved!
