NASHVILLE, Tenn. — A month-long grocery sales tax holiday in Tennessee is coming to an end.
State lawmakers passed a special item in the 2022-23 budget that suspends sales tax on most groceries for the entire month of August, beginning on August 1 and ending at 11:59 p.m. on August 31.
The grocery sales tax holiday is specifically for food and food ingredients but does not include things such as alcoholic beverages, tobacco, candy, dietary supplements or prepared food.
