If you need to buy new appliances, this migh be worth checking out. Note that the purchase window of time is just a short period in November. 8) ---------------------- In July 2008, North Carolina enacted legislation (H.B. 2436) establishing a "sales tax holiday" for certain Energy Star-certified products. Energy Star appliances sold between 12:01 a.m. on the first Friday of November and 11:59 p.m. on the following Sunday qualify for the sales tax exemption. The exemption is generally available for products that carry the Energy Star label and meet the energy-efficiency guidelines set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the U.S. Department of Energy, including: Clothes washers Freezers and refrigerators Central air conditioners and room air conditioners Air-source heat pumps and geothermal heat pumps Ceiling fans Dehumidifiers Programmable thermostats ------------------------------- Here's a direct link to the source: http://www.dsireusa.org/library/inc...Code=NC50F&state=NC&CurrentPageID=1&RE=1&EE=1
The first Friday in November is the 7th. I hope to have one by then, if not I'll get it that day! Thanks webbie.
Thanks! I'm bummed though as we just had to buy a new dryer AND fridge two weeks ago. Never a convenient time when they go out,is it?? Great to keep this date in mind in case any others go out by then--LOL. Thanks Webbie! Stephanie--mom to 7
