BF tax holiday in South Carolina

[SCmomof3]

Just got a newsletter from the DOR regarding sales tax. The SC state sales tax rate is increasing from 5-6% (plus your local taxes) effective June 1, 2007. That's not the news I'm referring to though

 

They are doing another sales tax holiday - but this time on ALL TAXABLE ITEMS - and the dates?? BLACK FRIDAY and Saturday!!!! Pretty cool! Way to make the craziness even crazier LOL I never make a big deal about the usual tax holiday they have in August, because it's not a big %age, but this, coupled with Black Friday sales - I'm happy about that! BTW this doesn't include the local tax (around 1% I think) but I would be very surprised if that wasn't waived also.

Wow... now this is a tax free holiday worth getting excited about. I haven't heard anything about it on news or in paper yet so thanks for the heads up. This will make a big difference on pricier items. Thank you Thank you

I can't wait to hit the Outlets in Gaffney @ Midnight so I can get some tax free stuff.
