Tax free shopping on coolers this weekend
 
Just a heads up......This weekend is a tax free weekend on hurricane preparedness supplies. Coolers are included. Might be a good weekend to pick me up a yeti....

Yep, I got a bunch of lumber to pick up at Stines this weekend.

Sure wish I had my house plan ready with material list..... could sure save a bundle

Salty 05-23-2012 11:36 PM

Is it no tax at all, or, no state sales tax?

fishinpox 05-23-2012 11:36 PM

My wife wants to go to New Orleans Saturday to some place that has a generator that she feels we need to run her commercial freezers in case of an outage. I told her to figure how much gas I'd burn going down there and coNpare that to the tax savings...not to mention the crowds that would rival Christmas Eve. If she feels that strongly about the generator.....I'll go get it next week after this crap is over.

Negative, Ghost Rider. Calcasieu Parish tax is 9.25% anywhere outside city limits. Inside Lake Charles is 9%. The tax free weekend only applies to the 4% state tax, so if you shop inside city limits you only pay 5% tax only.

Why does the Stine commercial say if you buy a lawn mower that cost $2999.00...you pay $2999 for it and not a penny more.

they may pay the fed tax for you ive seen ads like that before
its a little extra incentive to get you in the store to buy more things
