Springfield and Greene County (where I live) have opted out of the holiday, meaning they will still collect city and county taxes. Appears that serveral cities and counties have. Maybe a road trip to KC is in order for the weekend. No taxes on clothes, computers, software, etc.

At walmart on bypass/sunshine there are signs all over the school supply area saying tax free Aug 2nd-4th. I wonder if Walmart is doing it anyway or if it was just printed on their supply shelves and they were too lazy to cover it up?

I don't know. Maybe stores can opt? Going by the listings on the DOR website. Not sure, but maybe Walmart has opted to not charge the customers but is still paying the city and county the taxes that would have been due.
