The recession continues to hit American families hard, leaving them in need of money to meet recurring expenditures. Even buying school supplies for children could be a really big problem financially for some families. Instant cash in North Carolina can be easier to come by with tax free weekend NC 2010.
Tax free weekend NC 2010 runs today, August 6 through Sunday, August 8
Anyone hoping for quick personal loans will benefit from tax free weekend NC 2010. It can cost a lot of money to purchase a whole list of school supplies for kids. Many families will benefit from sales tax being taken away. Going along with it, places are running huge sales on school items reports the Asheville Citizen-Times.
Selling like crazy could be all the pencils and paper. ”It’s insanity around here. Tax-free weekend is busier than Black Friday for us. It’s that way for most office supply stores,” is what Nicole Lawrence, supervisor of Office Max in Buncombe County, North Carolina, told the Citizen-Times.
School buying strategies
School supplies might not be the only thing on your list for that weekend. Stores that sell clothing or sporting goods with school supplies profit quite a bit from the weekend also. Remember, less driving means less gasoline consumed. Before leaving, check newspaper and online ads for sales, and do some comparison purchasing. If you need a popular item that’s on sale, don’t wait to leave for the store. You’ll have to make sure to use patience. Most stores could be hoping with business.
Getting extra help
Families who need more financial assistance than North Carolina’s tax-free weekend can provide may be in luck. Anybody who needs help can look towards Eblen Kimmel Charities like “Tools for Schools” which provide help to families in need, repots the Citizen-Times in an interview with Jan Blunt of Buncombe County Schools. If you need to be a part of this, you will have to provide your child’s social security number and grade level. 50 Westgate Parkway is where Eblen Kimmel’s office is where supplies can be picked up on August 16. Those who would like to donate new, unopened school supplies for the giveaway are encouraged to do so on Wednesday, Aug. 11 between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. at the Ingles market on Tunnel Road.
