SALES TAX REMINDER
The
Tennessee Department of Revenue is having another sales tax
holiday April 25 through 27. This holiday will offer
three full days of tax savings to shoppers on clothing,
school and art supplies, and computers. The date,
originally set for March 21-23, was changed by the General
Assembly to April 25-27 to avoid falling on Easter weekend.
During the holiday, shoppers may purchase selected
clothing with a
price of $100 or less per item, school supplies with a price
of $100 or less per item and computers with a price of
$1,500 or less without paying Tennessee's state and local
sales tax. The holiday also includes
purchases of qualified items sold via mail, telephone,
e-mail or internet if the customer orders and pays for the
item and the retailer accepts the order during the holiday
for immediate shipment, even if delivery is made after the
exemption period. "All
Tennesseans can benefit from the state's sales tax
holidays," said Revenue Commissioner Reagan Farr. "The
April holiday offers tax free purchases on clothing for
summer programs or early back-to-school preparations."
