I still live in Texas and I don't go shopping on tax-free weekends! Besides all of the crowds, most the items are already picked over since our tax-free weekend isn't until the last weekend in August.
I did read something about a couple of states canceling tax-free weekends this year.
"This year, Georgia canceled its tax holiday. Washington, D.C., is forgoing a tax break for the second year in a row. Still, more than a third of states have a sales tax holiday this year."
