Virgina Hurricane-Prep Sales Tax Break Ends Saturday
Virginians who want to stock up on batteries, bottled water and other supplies for the hurricane season will get a tax break for a couple more days.
The sales tax holiday will spare residents state and local levies for items that also include flashlights, first-aid kits, and bigger-ticket items such as generators priced at $1,000 or less. The tax holiday runs through May 31.
U.S. government forecasters announced Thursday they expect three to six hurricanes to form in the Atlantic Ocean during the six-month storm season that begins June 1.
