PA has what they call a Luxury Tax, we went up to PA to buy my daughters wedding gown thinking it would be tax free, but it wasnt, they tacked on what they call the Luxury Tax on higher priced clothing.

You are correct. Pennsylvania taxes formal ware, some athletic clothing like swim suits and furs.

No Sales Tax in New Hampshire. No state income tax in New Hampshire. Mandatory vehicle inspections eliminated. "Interest and Dividends" tax repealed in 2025.

"LIVE FREE OR DIE".

@Cats3000 My nephew got married in New Hampshire about ten years ago. We made a family mini vaction out of the trip. DH loved the "Live free or Die" motto and had to get a hat with the phrase on it!

Connecticut's starts this Sunday and runs through the following Saturday. Clothing under $300. It excludes handbags, so that doesn't do me any good. 😂
