Every little bit of savings helps if you were going to buy the item anyway!

In Pennsylvania, there is never a sales tax on clothing (except for luxury items such as prom dresses, etc.).

My mom and sister are in town visiting me, and when Mom told me my sister needed some new jeans for school, I suggested we go shopping here to take advantage of the tax-free status.

It worked out since she needed back-to-school clothes anyway, but I can totally see how people could get carried away with a tax-free sale.
