It's not a tax-free week. It's gone for good (for now).

no tax on clothing and shoes over $110 (i think). they do this twice a year. my discover card needs to be sliced.

There's been no tax on clothes (up to $110) since April 1st. There is no scheduled come back.

I say "for now" because the tax will probably be brought back in the case of "economic hardships" the city might face in the future, like it was after 9/11.
