Virginia's annual sales tax holiday, running from Friday, August 7, to Sunday, August 9, offers residents a chance to save on various items, including essential emergency supplies.
The tax-free period begins at 12:01 a.m. Friday and concludes at 11:59 p.m. Sunday. While often associated with back-to-school purchases like notebooks and sneakers, the holiday extends to a broader range of goods.
Fairfax County Emergency Information highlights this weekend as an opportune time to stock up on emergency preparedness items, encouraging residents to utilize the tax savings for more than just school supplies.
