Heads up Tennesseans! In addition to the traditional sales tax holiday on clothing, school supplies and computers, the Tennessee General Assembly approved two additional tax-free days, one for groceries and the other for gun safes and safety equipment

The gun safes and safety equipment sales tax holiday begins at 12:01 a.m. on July 1 and ends at 11:59 p.m. on June 30, 2023. Gun safes included in the promotion include locking containers equipped with a padlock, key lock, combination lock or other device intended to store guns securely. A state spokesperson said safety devices are defined as an “integral device to be equipped or installed on a firearm that permits the user to program the firearm to operate only for specified persons designated by the user through computerized locking devices or other means integral to and permanently part of the firearm.”
