Sales Tax Holiday?!!

This is for all my West Coast friends and family: They do something really weird here - they pick a weekend and don't charge you any sales tax on s certain group of items. I know, I never heard of such a thing either. (It's not like when you go to Portland, since Oregon has no sales tax.) Next weekend, if you buy clothing (not jewelry or accessories) that costs under $100 per item, you don't have to pay sales tax. And the merchant legally cannot charge you any tax.

  2. It is a great thing for Oklahoma to think of giving a break to parents buying school clothes.

  3. Yep, they have this in my area from time to time--a way to help parents trying to get their children ready to go back to school.
