If you are looking to save some cash on back-to-school clothes shopping, you’re in luck in Maryland. “Shop Maryland Tax-Free Week” returns on Aug. 13 and runs through Aug. 19. During that week, shoppers won’t have to pay the 6% sales tax on most clothing and pairs of shoes $100 or less. A full list of items that are included in the sales tax exemption are available through the Comptroller’s website.
