Tax Free Back to School Shopping: August 5-7

The weekend of August 5, 6 and 7 is Tax Free shopping for Back to School for some states. Other states have it on a different weekend. You can view the entire list HERE.

Unfortunately, it doesn't look like Wisconsin is participating. :( I always bought clothes and school supplies on Tax-Free weekend when I lived in Missouri. It's a nice bonus when you're buying stuff you need anyways. Most of the time, school supplies, clothes and even computer purchases are included.

Remember that the stores will be crazy, so just keep that in mind as you prepare to shop. I've also worked tax-free weekend at a large department store, so I can attest to the insanity. I recommend bringing along lots of extra patience and smiles. :)

Thanks, My Frugal Adventures!
