Mississippi’s Sales Tax Holiday started Friday, offering residents a chance to save on back-to-school purchases. The event runs through midnight Sunday, July 12, according to state officials.
During the holiday, most school supplies, clothing, and computers are exempt from state sales tax, providing shoppers a break ahead of the new school year. The tax-free period is intended to ease the financial burden on families preparing for the upcoming academic term.
The holiday began on July 10 and is set to end at midnight on July 12, 2026, state officials said. Shoppers are encouraged to take advantage of the savings before the deadline.
