Tax Free Shopping Applies to J.Crew Online Too!

"Thanks!" to so many of you, including Sandy (in this post) and AppGal (in this post), who let us know that J.Crew will honor tax free shopping online. (This of course, is dependent on whether your state is offering the shopping incentive or not.)

Also, Sandy shared the following:

OK, here's the scoop on the tax-exempt weekend: JC CS says their online system should automatically deduct the sales tax for clothing being shipped to states that do this (the shipping destination is key). If it doesn't, for some reason, all you need to do is call CS, give them the order number, and they will refund the tax.

I recommend that anyone interested in taking advantage of the tax holiday find some info online on the specific restrictions for their state (I don't know if they're all the same or not.) In NC, AppGal (and as Rebecca pointed out), your total order can be whatever, but the price of an individual item cannot exceed $100. And accessories are excluded. Here's a site that lists which states have a tax-free weekend, with links to more information: http://singleparents.about.com/od/cuttingcosts/qt/TaxFreeHoliday.htm

I think it is great that J.Crew is automatically honoring tax-free shopping for customers in states running this promotion. Go J.Crew! :)

Happy {tax-free} shopping!
