Heads up: Axing taxing
By Wade Kwon
Finally, a holiday in August, and not just a greeting card holiday but one with real spiritual meaning in a world gone mad. We, of course, refer to the tax-free holiday today through Sunday, with nearly 400 municipalities in Alabama participating. What’s allowed in this back-to-school-inspired sale? Same as last year: clothing under $100, school supplies, books under $30 and computers and peripherals under $750 (pdf of rules). So stock up on pencils and Pentiums, and kids, stay in school.
