I was going to buy a new macbook but was wondering if these type of computers are not charged tax during the texas tax free weekend? So if I wait a couple of weeks will there be no tax on this computer?

No they don't qualify for the tax break. In TX it's limited to certain clothing items and backpacks only. Not even school supplies qualify for the break in TX. Oddly enough, adult diapers DO qualify for the tax break. Only in TX!!

Rtfm is actual. some states have what's called a tax loose weekend (or week, day, or in spite of term) around this time of three hundred and sixty 5 days. Such tax loose situations confer with state sales tax basically, and in many situations word basically to the acquisition of back-to-college clothing or components. in view that sales taxes are administered by using the guy states, understanding wherein state you reside is extreme to getting a staggering answer.

The previous answers appear to be correct that computers are not tax free. I copied the text below form the website they listed. You could always call and ask.
This list provides examples only. It does not include all items that may qualify for exemption during the sales tax holiday.
