By 1 Comment

The SC Tax-Free Weekend 2016 starts this Friday, August 5th at midnight and runs through 11:59 pm on Sunday night, August 7th. During that time you can shop for most school supplies and clothing without paying tax. Here is a list of what’s included and what’s not, and here are some helpful FAQs.

My tip for this year – shop online. I’m hooked on Amazon Prime. While it offers much, much more, I’m addicted to two-day free shipping, which will get those school supplies to you in plenty of time before the first day. Try Amazon Prime 30-Day Free Trial and see for yourself.

Need a list of supplies for your little (or big) one’s school? Here you go! We also have the 2016-2017 Horry County Schools calendar here.

#MYRsummerdeals2016: Free outdoor summer movies at Valor Park

By Leave a Comment

Valor Park in the Market Common hosts free outdoor summer movies, Friday nights from June through August! Pack your beach blanket or chairs, snacks, and bug spray! Films start at approximately 9 pm. Arrive early, though! While the space and screen are large, so is the audience! Also, if you bring a bag chair or other type of chair that sits fairly high, be prepared to sit in the back as to not obstruct the view of others. Low seated beach chairs are fine for sitting in the crowd. Enjoy!
