Tennessee Sales Tax HolidayTennessee Sales Tax Holiday dates
Tennessee offers a sales tax holiday from August 7th to August 9th in 2009. The Tennessee sales tax holiday is worth between 8.5 percent and 9.75 percent in savings during this sales tax holiday event. The Tennessee sales tax holiday is good on clothing which sell for less than $100, school supplies which are less than $100 and computers which sell for less than $1500.
Sales tax holidays are promoted by individual states to encourage people to buy certain items and to help lower the overall costs of these items by waiving the state sales tax. One of the most common sales tax holidays is the "Back to School" sales tax holiday. This event usually takes place in late July or early August and allows people to buy a variety of school related items without paying state sales tax.
Another sales tax holiday that is slowly gaining popularity is the "energy efficient appliances" sales tax holiday. This event usually takes place in late autumn as people are getting prepared for winter and often involves EnergyStar or other low energy rated appliances.Previous: South Dakota Sales Tax Holiday | Next: Texas Sales Tax Holiday
