Tax break three weekend away

How often does South Carolina extend the taxpayers a break? You can count on one before the start of a new school year. This year’s sales tax holiday will run Friday through Sunday, August 1-3. Among store items that will be exempt from the sales tax that weekend: clothing, footwear, school supplies, computers, printers, blankets, bath towels and pillows. The sales and use tax FAQs section on the website of the South Carolina Department of Revenue carries more information regarding the sales tax holiday.
