Florida Tax-Free Weekend 2016. Florida's Back-to-School Shopping Sales Tax Holiday is scheduled for August 5-7, 2016. The Florida tax-free weekend/week savings does not apply to clothing sold for more than $100 per item; school supplies sold for more than $15 per item; books (although many are already exempt).
Florida has reduced the length of its event to three days this year, from 10 last year, and has eliminated computers from eligibility. Louisiana is temporarily reducing its state sales tax to 3 percent from the usual 5 percent, rather than eliminating it, during its tax holiday this weekend. Massachusetts, facing a budget crunch, is skipping a back-to-school tax holiday this year â only the second time since 2004 that it has done so.
