OKLAHOMA CITY (July 21, 2025) – Ahead of the annual Tax-Free Weekend, NFIB State Director Jerrod Shouse is encouraging consumers to shop small. The sales tax holiday, which begins on Friday, August 1 and runs through Sunday, August 3 is a great opportunity to support local businesses.

“Main Street businesses are the foundation of our economy,” Shouse said. “They create good-paying jobs for Oklahomans, meet their customers’ needs, and keep our communities thriving. Every purchase made at a small business supports the Oklahoma economy, and during the tax-free holiday, your hard-earned dollars go even further. It’s a small way to make a big difference here at home.”

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.
