We are coming to Southaven for girls fast pitch softball series from Georgia. What is the retail sales tax rate around Southaven and Memphis? Is there a grocery tax at either location and if so how much?

MS sales tax is 7%. That applies to retail and groceries. July 30 and 31 is a retail sales tax holiday in MS.


Quote:
The items exempt from sales tax during the Sales Tax Holiday period are identical to those items exempted last year. Clothing and footwear items, meant to be worn next to the body and cost $100 or less per item, are exempt from sales tax during this period.

Accessories such as jewelry, handbags, wallets, watches, backpacks, and similar items do not qualify for the Sales Tax Holiday. Cleats and items worn in conjunction with an athletic or recreational activity are other sample items not eligible. School supplies and computers are not included.

Restaurant and fast food tax is 9%.

You will probably be playing at the Greenbrook softball complex. If you need any other information like restaurants then let me know.

We are looking at pulling in at EzDaze RV Resort in Southhaven on July 30-31st. We are starting a federal job there in Memphis.

Would you be willing to help us with establishing ourselves there in the means of telling us best restaurants, ins and outs that only a local will know

Thanks in advance!!

Sure. But I suggest that you start a new thread instead of hijacking this one.
