Local retailers are looking forward to tomorrow's tax-free holiday hoping Vermonters will take advantage of the opportunity to keep the state's 6 percent tax in their pockets. Shoppers in Rutland Town will get an extra discount because the town's 1 percent local tax will also be waived for the day.
Vermont's one-day sales tax holiday affects purchases of personal items under $2,000, which makes big-ticket items like furniture and appliances the best deals of the day. Governor Douglas said he'll take advantage of the day to buy a new stove on orders from his wife.
