Can You Take Advantage of This Hack to Save on a Mac?
Apple’s actions illustrate the broader problem of consumer tech inflation, and it probably won’t get better for a while.
Sales tax holidays are a laptop storage hack
But what if you could recoup some extra $100 on a MacBook Neo, or save on another PC? One way to do this is to shop during your state’s sales tax holiday (if it offers one and has computers). Tax-free weekends usually occur in July or August, in conjunction with the back-to-school season, and can save you money.
Tennessee’s tax-free weekend, for example, is July 31 through August 2. Computers priced up to $1,500 are eligible. Laptops are also fair game for savings during Florida’s extended tax-free period, which runs from July 20 to August 20.
These dedicated storage days are a great time to pick up new outfits for the kids and round out the school supply lists, too. If your state doesn’t participate, can you drive to one that does? Retail road trip!
