TMCNet: Back to School Sales Tax Holiday kicks off Friday

Back to School Sales Tax Holiday kicks off Friday

Aug 05, 2010 (The Sedalia Democrat - McClatchy-Tribune Information Services via COMTEX) -- Shoppers will be out in full force this weekend purchasing school related items as Pettis County participates in the statewide Back to School Sales Tax Holiday.


Beginning at 12:01 a.m. Friday, shoppers can stock up on school supplies, computers and clothing that will be exempt from the state and county sales tax.

According to the Missouri Department of Revenue's Web site, dor.mo.gov, individual cities can choose not to participate in the tax holiday. In Sedalia, the city sales tax will still be in effect.

Russell Hall, operations manager at Staples in Sedalia, said he expected during the three-day weekend, the store will see an increase in the number of school supplies and computers being purchased.

"Yes, we are expecting it to be busy," Hall said.

He said Staples has been busy for the past few weeks, but many shopper may be waiting for the tax holiday to purchase bigger items such as computers.

"A lot of people have been asking about it," Hall said.

The sales tax exemption is limited to clothing having a taxable value of $100 or less, school supplies that do not exceed $50 per purchase, computer software with a taxable value of $350 or less, personal computers that do not exceed $3,500 and computer peripheral devices that do not exceed $3,500.

Missouri has a sales tax of 4.225 percent, which is used to finance portions of the state government for general revenue, education and parks and soils.

Pettis County Presiding Commissioner Rusty Kahrs said the tax holiday encourages people to shop locally for their back to school needs.

"It's been our experience in the last couple of years that it doesn't have an impact positively or negatively on the county revenue," Kahrs said. "We're definitely interested in doing everything we can to help the taxpayers." The Pettis County sales tax is 5.225 percent.

Shoppers have until midnight Sunday to take advantage of the tax holiday.
