Willie Morales+FollowAlabama families get a break at the checkoutStarting September 1, Alabama shoppers will notice a lighter load on their grocery bills as the state sales tax on food drops from 3% to 2%. For a family of four, that could mean saving about $125 a year—money that can really add up, especially with rising prices. Plus, diapers, maternity clothes, and feminine products will also be tax-free statewide. Local governments can even choose to cut their own grocery taxes further. While this change will impact the education budget, many see it as a much-needed relief for families. How do you think this will affect your weekly shopping? #Business #MakeMoney #Alabama00Share
