Florida's Back To School Sales Tax Holiday - August 7 - 16, 2015

Florida's back to school sales tax holiday is coming up once again, running this year from August 7 - 16, 2015. This year it is going to cover two weekends, giving parents who do not get paid on a weekly basis the chance of getting out and saving on those back to school itmes that they need to purchase.

What is included? Clothing and footwear under $100 per item, school supplies under $15 each, personal computers and some computer related items costing less than $750 each. The computer items must be related to school use, not personal or commercial use.

Naturally, the stores are going to be packed during this tax free time. I have found that weekends and the LAST DAY of the tax free event is normally the worst time to purchase since it seems that everybody has waited until the last moment.

Now that you have Florida's back to school sales tax holiday dates, go out and save some money while purchasing those back to school items that you need to provide for your children and yourself.

Barbara Jo, The sales tax holiday in Florida is fairly long. here in Texas it starts I believe on Friday and ends on Sunday. Florida has the correct idea about this tax holiday.

This is excellent information for parents who need to get out there and buy all those school supplies, etc. Alas, I don't believe CA does this, although individual retailers do on occasion

This is a wonderful program for families especially and really everyone can benefit from buying their office products and clothing during this time without paying sales tax.

I agree that this sounds like a very worthwhile program, back to school supplies is a cost that is unavoidable and helping out on those costs is only going to help.
