Sales Tax Holiday For Back to School Shopping

It's hard to believe, but it's that time of year again.  It seems like the kids just got out of school for the summer, but back-to-school shopping is just around the corner. 

Below is a list of state sales tax holidays that are scheduled to take place during the back-to-school shopping season. Everywhere possible, I've listed the applicable dates, the items covered, and the maximum values of eligible items (if applicable).

What I thought was interesting is that South Carolina is the only state that does not put a limit on the amount you can buy and not pay the sales tax.  I love South Carolina just a little bit more!

These are going to be some very busy weekends for shopping, so make sure you get out there early to get everything on your list!
