The annual tax-free weekend in Texas runs from Friday, Aug. 9, through midnight Sunday, Aug. 11. This is the perfect time to pick up back-to-school items tax-free.
Items that qualify for no sales tax this weekend include clothing, footwear, school supplies, and backpacks. The total sale price must be below $100, however, to qualify. The Texas Comptroller's website has the full list of qualifying items and more information.
Things to remember:
ATPE offers member discounts for a variety of back-to-school items, including apparel, shoes and accessories through our Discount and Rewards Marketplace. This benefit also applies to certain items that are not covered during the tax-free weekend. These items include tickets to movies, concerts and sporting events, as well as televisions, computers, smartphones and other electronics.
