I think it is this weekend and you get to shop for school related supplies up to a certain price at participating locations (Best Buy in Cary) and you pay not state tax from what I understand........I would say a 50 inch 1080p plasma would be great for my "sons" education
Check this thread. In it, mm34b has listed what is & isn't tax-free this weekend. https://www.city-data.com/forum/north...x-holiday.html
Sorry to break it to ya, tluv00, but you'll still have to pay taxes on that TV!
Edited to add:
Here's a website from the NC Department of Revenue with all the info. Sales Tax Holiday
Cool! I forgot all about this! No taxes on "back to school items".
