Fry announces sales tax holiday weekend

Rep. Joel Fry, R-Osceola, released information regarding the annual Iowa sales tax holiday.

This year beginning at 12:01 a.m. Aug. 7, through midnight Aug. 8, no sales tax will be collected on select clothing or footwear having a selling price of less than $100 per item.

All businesses open on Aug. 7 and Aug. 8 are required to participate, though the holiday does not extend to Sunday.

“As the family budget is stretched thin, hopefully the tax free weekend relieves some burden on the hardworking taxpayers of Iowa,” Fry said.
