So, get\u200b your shopping carts ready!<\/p>\n<h3>Can You Use Coupons\u2062 or Take Advantage of Sales?<\/h3>\n<p>While\u200b you can definitely\u2064 take advantage of sales \u200dand discounts during\u200d the tax-free holiday, there are a few rules to keep in mind. Items that are part of a\u2062 &#8220;buy one, get one free&#8221; or &#8220;buy one, get one for a reduced price&#8221; deal cannot be \u2064averaged for both items to be\u200c exempt \u2063from sales \u200ctax.<\/p>\n<p>However,\u2064 if the first item is\u200c worth over $100 and the second item is discounted by half, the sales tax will\u2063 only be \u2062charged on the first item.

However,\u2063 fear not! \u200bStore coupons and discounts can be used to\u200b bring \u200cthe \u2063price of \u200can \u2063item below $100, making it eligible for the tax exemption.<\/p>\n<h3>What About Exchanges?<\/h3>\n<p>Thinking of exchanging a \u200ctax-exempt purchase?\u200c Here&#8217;s what you need to know. If you&#8217;re swapping a qualifying\u2062 item for the same item in \u2063a different color\u2062 or size, \u200dyou won&#8217;t be charged any additional\u2063 tax. However, if you decide to \u200dreturn an eligible item for\u2062 a different \u2064item or store credit, the\u200b sales tax\u2064 associated with that location will apply to the price of the newly-purchased item.<\/p>\n<p>So, mark your calendars and get ready to shop &#8217;til you drop during Iowa&#8217;s tax-free holiday.\u200d It&#8217;s \u2062the perfect opportunity \u2063to save some cash \u2063while treating\u2062 yourself\u200c and \u2064your \u2062loved ones to some\u200c fabulous new additions to your wardrobe!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Iowa&#8217;s tax-free holiday is just a week away, allowing residents to shop for clothing without paying state or local sales taxes.
