Illinois’ Back to School Sales Tax holiday is right around the corner! From Friday, August 7th through end of business on Sunday, August 16th, the State’s portion of the sales tax rate will drop from 6.25% to 1.25%, reducing the sales tax by 5% during those ten days.
While this is just a temporary solution, I hope you will take advantage of this opportunity to save! For more information on what qualifies, click the link here: https://tax.illinois.gov/…/bulletins/fy-2026-30.html
