Be Ready for Ohio’s Tax Free Weekend! August 7-9, 2020

August 2, 2020 by Ashley T

If you are anything like me and are ready to save some money when it comes to back to school, listen up! It is almost time for the Ohio Tax-free weekend we moms love so much. What does that mean for you?

This means you save not only the money you’d save on the sale currently going on:

You also save sales tax because of the tax-free weekend! Yes!

Sales tax can be a large amount when adding up how much you spend on one kid and multiplies when you have more than 1. I mean, I know. Shopping for 3 kids is always fun and expensive. I have to make sure I have my deal face on.

Ohio Tax-Free Weekend

Make sure you stay within the guidelines to qualify for tax-free. This is what qualifies:

  • Clothing priced $75 or less
  • School supplies priced $20 or less
  • School instructional materials priced $20 or less

While there is no limit on the total amount that you can spend in one transaction, you do have to watch how much each item costs. You also have to make sure you know what doesn’t count as clothing.

Clothing that does not qualify includes accessories (like cosmetics, jewelry, sunglasses, watches), protective equipment (like safety goggles, tool belts, and hard hats), sewing equipment, sporting equipment (like cleats, mouth guards, padding), costumes and patches or emblems.

What items qualify as school supplies?

  •  binders
  • book bags
  • calculators
  • cellophane tape
  • blackboard chalk
  • compasses
  • composition books
  • crayons
  • erasers
  • folders (expandable, pocket, plastic, and manila)
  • glue, paste, and paste sticks
  • highlighters
  • index cards
  • index card boxes
  • legal pads
  • lunch boxes
  • markers
  • notebooks
  • loose leaf ruled notebook paper, copy paper, graph paper, tracing paper, manila paper, colored paper, poster board, and construction paper
  • pencil boxes and other school supply boxes
  • pencil sharpeners
  • pencils
  • pens
  • protractors
  • rulers
  • scissors
  • writing tablets

One Last Thing:

Online orders count! All orders are done through mail, telephone, e-mail, or on the internet qualify for the sales tax exemption if you order and pay for the item and the retailer accepts the order during the exemption period for immediate shipment.

So get to shopping this Friday and have fun!

The first quote is from the song “Moment” by Victoria Monét. I love the song, listen when you get a chance. 

Goodbye 2020, Hello 2021!

Paul said I created a fire hazard on my #bulletjou Paul said I created a fire hazard on my #bulletjournal “Books read in 2021” page. But it came out better than I thought it would. 

My soft goal for 2021 is 30 books which I’m pretty sure I can make. My hard goal is 45. Once school ends, I’ll have more time to read and make it through the list I’ve built up. Can’t wait!

I always make it a point to read a certain amount I always make it a point to read a certain amount of books each year but the last 2 or so years, I just haven’t read that many. So, I’m writing down books I plan on reading in 2021 and making sure I follow though. 

Anyone else have an amount of books they want to read in 2021? I’ll have a follow up post with the spread for my “books read in 2021”.

I never shared my #november2020 spread... mainly b I never shared my #november2020 spread... mainly because I never really finished it. I’ve been so busy that I had to do each week as it started which made me lazy. 

However, with thanksgiving giving me a much needed break from work and school, I hopped on to make the last month of the year.

I have to admit that I’m extremely excited to work on my 2021 #bulletjournal  because I’ll be started in a new book and will have plenty of time to figure out how I want the beginning to look. Be sure to lookout for it!
