https://www.mass.gov/info-details/s...ales tax holiday for,be exempt from sales tax.

Retail items of up to $2,500, purchased in Massachusetts for personal use on these two days, will be exempt from sales tax.
Unfortunately it doesn't apply to cars, or most big purchases.

If that was the case, there would be 0 vehicle purchases the rest of the year and every single car transaction would happen on those 2 days. Can you imagine the insanity going on that weekend if everyone rushed over to buy their car?

Also, unless you're also registering the car in NH, you won't escape the MA tax. The day you go to the RMV to register your car in MA, they will either ask to see your tax payment receipt or ask for the money up front.

The tax man ain't dumb.

I'm going to buy a new Samsung phone,.....I'm guessing about $1,200 with no taxes.
I'll go to Best Buy and open up a credit card for 0% for 6 months and pay it off interest free.

Got the Samsung 21+ yesterday.
$1,100, which included the Otterbox Commuter case, a wall charger plug, (since the phone manufacturer does not include them anymore, just the cord), and I bought another wall charger/cord to leave at work.
Not bad, I guess. Saved a lot of money on taxes. Also updated my plan,......went to unlimited everything for the same amount that I am paying now, which is a no-brainer. ALSO, applied for the Best Buy card and got 0% financing for 24 months.
Win -win all the way around.
