Tax-free weekends are brief intervals where specific items are exempt from state sales tax, primarily designed to assist families with essential back-to-school shopping. These tax holidays typically occur before the school year starts, covering items like school supplies and clothing. Each state determines its own rules, including price limits for qualifying items. Notably, certain states have unique exemptions and restrictions, such as New Mexico where specific clothing items may still incur tax. Retailers automatically apply these discounts without requiring shoppers to complete forms, facilitating a smoother purchasing process.
