This bill establishes an annual sales tax holiday in Michigan for back-to-school shopping, offering tax-free purchases of specific items between the third Saturday in August and the third Sunday in August. Eligible items include clothing under $100 per piece, school supplies under $20 per item, and computers or computer supplies under $1,000 and $500 respectively, provided they are for personal use and not accessories like jewelry or bags. The legislation also clarifies how discounts, coupons, and layaway plans are handled to determine tax eligibility, ensuring that the final sale price dictates whether an item qualifies for the exemption.
