It really disappoints me that the Florida Legislature did not pass a school sales tax holiday this year. For years, even as an Alabama Resident my family and I have gone to Pensacola to buy school supplies and clothing for school. Now that I am a student at UWF in Pensacola (have been since 2006) we will more than likely have to make the hour and a half drive to Saraland/Mobile to buy the things I need in order to enjoy in the sales tax holiday. I just think it's a shame that the legislature is making the whole state of Florida and lower parts of Alabama suffer because they "thought" that not passing this holiday would save people money. Which shows they actually didn't think at all!
