What Will You Buy During the Tax-Free Weekend?

Let us know in the comments section below.

 

Shoppers will be getting a break to the hit on their wallets during this weekend, Aug. 11 to 12, during a Sales Tax Holiday in Massachusetts. 

This weekend the 6.25 percent sales tax levy will be suspended on most items less that $2,500. Excluded items include tobacco products, utilities, motor vehicles, motorboats and meals.

That still leaves appliances, electronics, household items, toys and a variety of other products people can buy without paying taxes. Is there something you have your eye on that you might buy this weekend?

What do you plan to purchase during the tax holiday? Is there something you've been waiting to buy that the holiday might motivate you to go out and get? 

Answer the question in the comments section below.

Cell phones because they are normally taxed at the retail price of the phone, not the actual sales price.
