Few coupons and tips for sales tax holiday - updated

Here are a few coupns for a few stores. There are sales going on - check online, check newspaper circulars which usually are available on Sundays or in weekly town newspapers that are delivered during the week and of course look for coupons to save even more during no sales tax holiday.

And if you have school supplies to shop for your children, make sure you have the supply list. Some local supply stores usually have the supply list for schools or check the school online for it.

One last pointer make sure you know what are the limits and exclusions for the sales tax holiday. Refer to my article Let the sales tax holiday begin for links to designated states participating and additional information.
