Is furniture also tax free in VA during the tax free weekend event in VA?

Answer 1

Here is what is tax free for VA, also I have included Washington, DC and Maryland if they are close enough for you.

Virginia's Tax-Free Shopping Dates
Virginia: Aug. 3-5, 2007

Applies to:
Clothing and footwear under $100
School supplies under $20

Washington D.C.:
Aug. 4-12, 2007 and Nov. 24-Dec. 2, 2007

Shoes under $100
School supplies under $100

Maryland's Tax-Free Shopping Dates
Maryland:

Unfortunately, the State of Maryland has not scheduled a tax-free shopping holiday for 2007. As you may recall, shoppers were able to shop for clothing and shoes under $100 between August 23-27, 2006, without paying sales tax.

Answer 2

No. Here's the word, directly from the State:

A Sales Tax Holiday is a temporary period when certain purchases are exempt from the sales tax. In 2006, the General Assembly approved Virginia's first Sales Tax Holiday, to take place each year on the first full weekend in August.

In 2007, the Sales Tax Holiday will begin at 12:01 a.m. on Friday, August 3, 2007 and end at midnight on Sunday, August 5, 2007.

During Virginia's Sales Tax Holiday, purchases of school supplies selling for $20 or less per item, and articles of clothing, including footwear, selling for $100 or less per item, will be exempt from sales tax. All retailers selling these items MUST participate in the Sales Tax Holiday. Sales tax exemptions do not apply to items selling for more than the amounts listed.

Retailers may also choose to absorb the sales tax on other items during the Sales Tax Holiday, but they are responsible for paying the tax themselves to the Department of Taxation.

Answer 3

What a smarty-pants. That s stable question. In some states: clothing upload-ons, rings, purses, umbrellas, eyewear, watches, watchbands and comparable products are *taxable.* Newspapers, magazines, textbooks, self-help and parenting books do *no longer qualify.
