  1. These tax-free days are such a big help because you have so many expenses at the beginning of a school year.

    • I agree Cheryl! Even with my eldest doing Virtual Virginia this year – just school fees, materials and clothing alone for the two boys I’m looking at every bit of about $300 to $400 for the two of them.
