Mark Your Calendars: Maryland’s Tax Free Shopping Week Is Coming Up

BALTIMORE (WJZ) — It’s August now, which means Maryland’s tax free shopping week is right around the corner.

The second Sunday of August to the following Saturday is designated as “Shop Maryland Tax-Free Week” each year, and qualifying apparel and footwear that costs $100 or less per item are exempt from the state’s 6 percent sales tax.

Tax free week begins August 13, runs through August 19 and, unlike previous years, the first $40 of a backpack or bookbag purchase will also be tax-free.

We just go toDelaware every day to shop. It's close and they have nice stuff.

Thanks but no thanks, Maryland.

Yeah, how much of our tax dollars get spent to promote the "tax free" weekend when anyone on MDs Eastern shore is 30 minutes from Delaware at most.
