Families and stores across Arlington are getting ready for one of the year's busiest shopping weekends. It is a sales tax holiday in Texas, and the most popular back-to-school items are on the list.
Beginning Friday, August 9 most clothing, footwear, school supplies and backpacks (less than $100) will be sold tax free. You can shop in stores or online through 11:59 p.m. Sunday, August 11 to receive the exemption.
The sales tax holiday will save families about eight percent on qualifying items.
