I looked around and didn't see this posted but as a reminder, many states will be having Tax Free Weekends for school supplies, clothes, computers, etc, soon. This applies to online purchases as well.

 

About.com has a listing of the states participating and the specifics for each state:

We're going to Myrtle Beach S.C. on Aug 6th for a last mini vacation before ds starts back to school. Checked the schedule, and South Carolina's tax free weekend will be Aug 6-8th. Yay... lots of outlets there!
