States With Upcoming Tax Free Holidays in 2008

I recently got an email from a co-worker listing the dates of an upcoming tax-free holiday here in Louisiana for the purchase of hurricane preparedness items, and after doing a little research on the internet I came across a list of tax-free holidays in 2008 for quite a few different states. Here is a list of the states, along with the dates, what items are eligible, and the maximum purchase amount for each transaction, I believe. For additional details, I would recommend visiting each state’s individual tax department website listed, also listed below. I hope this helps you plan ahead for any purchases you may be making this year.
