Get ready to save on your back-to-school shopping list! Maryland's Shop Tax-Free Week runs August 9th through August 15th, giving shoppers a break on qualifying apparel and footwear priced at $100 or less per item. Backpacks and bookbags also get in on the savings, with the first $40 of each purchase tax-free.
This year's theme is all about savings that go further, for families, for local businesses, and for communities across the state. That's where the Pike District comes in. Choosing to shop at local retailers during Tax-Free Week means your savings stay close to home, supporting neighborhood jobs and strengthening the local economy right here in our community.
So grab your back-to-school list and head out to your favorite Pike District shops this week. Your wallet, and your neighbors, will thank you.
