Annual Tax-Free Week Aug. 19-25 In Darien And Throughout CT
During the event, certain clothing items are tax free.
From The Darien Chamber of Commerce: The Darien Chamber of Commerce and Local Merchants are excited to announce that August 19th to August 25th is CT Tax Free Shopping Week! This is a terrific time to make your list and shop locally to
buy the back-to-school clothing items and fall wardrobe additions Darien residents will need for the
upcoming fall season. Any clothing item under $100 will be sales tax exempt if purchased locally. (This
includes items that are on sale for less than $100.)
Darien has many retail shops that can fulfill the wardrobe needs for your family and yourself! School,
work, fall sports, leisure, rainy or cold weather clothing can all be found here. Go to
www.darienctchamber.com for more information on Darien’s local stores and you can access the list of
qualifying categories of clothing at http://www.ct.gov/drs/cwp/view.asp?a=1477&q=509662.
Take your list and check it twice to make sure you don’t miss out on savings that can extend your
purchasing power! Plus, when you shop locally-your dollars go back into our local Darien economy and
help to keep our town retail scene healthy which benefits all.
