Shop and Save During Tax-Free Weekend

Shop and save on back-to-school apparel during Oklahoma's Tax-Free Weekend, August 2-4, 2024!

According to the Oklahoma Tax Commission, any clothing or footwear under $100 is exempt from taxes this weekend only (excluding sports equipment and uniforms).

While school supplies are not tax-exempt, you can find great deals on these at the ReStore Rack. Stop by this weekend and let us help you get back-to-school ready!
