“TEXAS ANNOUNCES SALES TAX HOLIDAY FOR PREPPER SUPPLIES



Texas has implemented a new sales tax holiday to help residents prepare for any of the numerous natural hazards that affect the state. The Emergency Preparations Supplies tax holiday is meant to help residents of the state purchase emergency supplies to ensure family preparedness for extreme weather events. Passed by the Texas Legislature in 2015, the free sales tax includes items such as flashlights, batteries, first aid kits, radios, or other disaster supply kit materials and does not limit quantities on qualifying items. The free sales tax also includes more expensive items like emergency ladders or generators, but will not cover car batteries or general camping supplies. The tax free event begins April 23rd, but purchases must be completed before the end of April 25th.”
