I think that would be considered illegal if they did that.  It's not like people are not monitoring the prices.

Personally, every day of the year should be totally tax free. We pay enough in taxes already.

Yeah, here in Ma we get a tax free weekend in Aug. My brother bought a stove. Pretty lucky the thing gave out a week or so before the tax free holiday. Talk about Divine Intervention!   ;D

Google JediJohnnie and May the Force be with you!

I have never heard of a tax free week.  There is a tax free WEEKEND which is only 3 days.  Also never seen prices jacked up.  Usually everything is on sale because it is right before school starts.

I think that would be a good idea.  And sometime is not.  There would be a crowded all over the store and people fighting for whatever it cheap.  Not worth it.
