Virginia Tax FREE Holiday

Virginia will be having another "tax holiday", October 8-11, this time on "Energy Star and Water Sense" labeled products. What does that mean? If you have been thinking about or putting off replacing or upgrading these items in your home, why not do it while there is no tax! Following is a general list, please see the website for more details and terms: Air conditioners, ceiling fans, compact flourescent light bulbs, dehumidifiers, dishwashers, programmable thermostats, refrigerators, washing machines/clothes washers, bathroom sink faucets, faucet accessories, showerheads, toilets and urinals. Of course these items must have the "EnergyStar or WaterSense" labels, be less than $2,500 and be for personal or noncommercial use. Hey, if you were going to have to replace it anyway, consider the "EnergyStar or WaterSense" replacement during this tax free holiday weekend. Save yourself some money and do some good for the environment. Saving our resources is good for the future. Besides, then you will have a clear conscience to reprimand anyone who doesn't! www.tax.virginia.gov
