    Some states offer sales tax holidays on electronics at certain times. A tax-free shopping opportunity for Apple is approaching. This year, nine states allow you to buy at least some Apple products without paying any sales tax on your purchase.

    Sales tax holidays

    A sales tax holiday is a limited-time period where a state allows purchases of specified items to be made tax-free. If you make purchases of qualified products during a state’s sales tax holiday, you will not be charged sales tax on the purchases. States typically offer sales tax holidays to encourage consumer spending.
