Shop Small During Annual Sales Tax Holiday

AUSTIN (Aug. 6, 2024) – Ahead of the annual Sales Tax Holiday, NFIB Texas is encouraging consumers to shop small. The sales tax holiday, which begins on Friday, August 9, and runs through the weekend, is a great opportunity to support local businesses. “When you shop small, you support your local community,” NFIB State Director Jeff Burdett said. “The sales tax holiday is a great opportunity to save big while supporting the small businesses that keep our communities thriving. Small business owners not only create good-paying jobs for our neighbors and friends, but also sponsor local events, school fundraisers, and Little Leagues. As families get ready to head back to school, we hope that Texans will choose Main Street for their back-to-school supplies during this sales tax holiday.” Background: According to the Texas Comptroller, the 2024 Sales Tax Holiday begins Friday, August 9, and concludes at midnight Sunday, August 11.
