Plan for tax-free weekend shopping just as you do for Holiday shopping: be prepared for traffic issues, and long lines at retailers as there are going to be lots of shoppers AND delays as shoppers who are not prepared, will find at the register that some of their items do not qualify. Shop early and plan for a long day.
