Tax holiday ahead for gun purchases, appliances
COLUMBIA -- Whether you're shopping for a shotgun or an energy-efficient washing machine, S.C. lawmakers want to give you a tax break. This week, House lawmakers gave key approval to a bill that:
Exempts handguns, rifles and shotguns from state sales tax during the biggest shopping weekend of the year. "Second Amendment Weekend" is scheduled for the Friday and Saturday after Thanksgiving 2009.
Allows South Carolinians buying energy-efficient appliances to also forego the state sales tax. Dishwashers, dryers, even fluorescent light bulbs would be exempt from state sales tax from Oct. 1 through Oct. 31. The tax-free Energy Efficiency Month also would begin next year.
