Unless you eat it or wear it then you tax everything in Massachusetts!

I think they even tax clothing over $150? So leather jackets, etc. are taxed?

It's the amount of a single article of clothing above $175.

Massachusetts has a tax-free holiday.

That's when you can buy anything you want—tax-free.

Well...

Not anything...

You are right, not everything.

Boats, motor vehicles, and anything over $2,500 are typically not included on the tax free holiday. That would deprive the state of substantial revenue.
