TAX FREE HOLIDAY AND MORE DVDs TO GIVE AWAY!

TAX FREE HOLIDAY:

This weekend, from August 1-3,  is the annual Back-to-School Tax Free Holiday in New Mexico. During this time the state suspends collection of gross receipts tax on sales of qualifying items so you can buy many items tax free. Because many merchants also absorb the tax on a number of non-qualifying items, you are the beneficiary all around. The tax holiday begins at 12:01 a.m. on August 1, 2014 and concludes on August 3, 2014 at midnight.

B-200.18, List of Taxable and Non Taxable Items for New Mexico's Gross Receipts Tax Holiday contains list divided into categories. Within some categories there is a set dollar maximum.

MORE FREE DVDs:
I've still got some new, unopened DVDs left to give away and I added a few more (some of these are older titles, but still unused)! Want one? Just post a comment below with the title you would like and I will pick randomly next Tuesday (August 5) and contact you for pick up/drop off arrangements. If you're willing to take a different title, don't forget to post your second choice as well! Email me for full contest rules.Please remember that you must be a subscriber to win - so if you enter, you give me permission to subscribe you to the free Macaroni Kid e-newsletter. Whatever doesn't go this week, I will offer again later this month. Thanks to KIDS FIRST! for the awesome prizes.

Have a wonderful macaroni week!
