The first weekend in August has been designated as a sales tax free weekend for certain items in Ohio. You can purchase clothing priced at $75 or less for each item, school supplies at $20 or less per item and school instructional material at $20 or less per item.

To see all information on the tax free weekend, you can find it on the state website.
