The Massachusetts sales tax holiday is this weekend.
Consumers will not have to pay the six-and-a-quarter-percent sales taxes on most goods Saturday and Sunday.
Store owners say the holiday goes a long way to generating foot traffic.
Products that are exempt include restaurant meals, cars bought at the dealership, and marijuana dispensaries.
Connecticut will have a State Sales Tax Free week beginning August 20th which is geared to back to school shopping.
