Back-to-School Tax Breaks Compared | St. Louis News
Description
Missouri and Illinois are both offering back-to-school sales tax breaks this weekend — but the deals differ. Missouri’s tax holiday runs Friday to Sunday, wiping out all state and local taxes on qualifying items like clothes, shoes, laptops, and school supplies — open to everyone, even non-residents. Illinois starts its event Friday but extends it for ten days, slashing the state tax rate from 6.25% to 1.25%, though local taxes still apply. Missouri’s savings are deeper; Illinois excludes computers. Shop smart before you hit the stores — your wallet will thank you.
