Shop Small During Annual Tax-Free Weekend

Annual tax-free weekend exempts certain clothing and footwear items from sales tax.

OKLAHOMA CITY (July 31, 2024) – Ahead of the annual Tax-Free Weekend, the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) here in Oklahoma is encouraging consumers to shop small. The sales tax holiday, which begins on Friday, August 2 and runs through Sunday, is a great opportunity to support local businesses, NFIB State Director Jerrod Shouse said in a statement.

“As families consider purchasing new clothes for the upcoming school year, we hope that they’ll take advantage of the tax-free weekend and shop small. We know that shopping small keeps more hard-earned dollars within a community. Main Street businesses not only create good-paying jobs for our friends and family but also sponsor school fundraisers and Little Leagues. Small businesses are the backbone of the economy, keeping communities vibrant and strong.”

Background:

According to the Oklahoma Tax Commission, items that qualify for Tax-Free Weekend include any article of clothing or footwear designed to be worn on or about the body, and the sales price is less than $100.
