My finance view

Missouri’s is Aug. 7-9 and applies to:

— Clothing with a taxable value that is not more than $100

— School supplies, not exceeding $50 per purchase

— Computer software under $350

— Computers and computer equipment that doesn’t cost more than $3,500

Some cities and counties elect not to participate in the holiday, which means buyers must still pay local sales tax cash advance lenders.
