Just in time for back to school shopping, the Tennessee Tax-Free Weekend is Friday, August 2 through Sunday, August 4. During this time, certain clothing, school supplies, and computers are exempt from both state and local sales tax. In Knoxville and Knox County you will save the entire 9.25% sales tax that is normally charged! All exempt items will be tax-free for one weekend regardless of who actually uses the items. (The tax free items are not required to be used by students.) Items purchased for use by a trade or business, however, are not exempt.
