Alabama’s annual back to school sales tax holiday is underway, giving giving shoppers the opportunity to purchase certain school supplies, computers, books and clothing tax free. And for the first time in the 13-year history of the sales tax holiday, the City of Atmore is taking part.

Tax exempt items across Alabama include:

  • clothing priced at $100 or less per article of clothing;
  • school supplies valued at $50 or less per item;
  • books that cost $30 or less per book; and
  • tablets, laptops, computers and printers with a selling price of $750 or less.
