This weekend, most products under $2,500 will not be subject to the state's 6.25 percent sales tax in what has become something of an August tradition: the tax holiday. Last year Beacon Hill chose to forgo that tax break because of the recession and tight state budget. We talk about what's changed between then and now.

Guest: Jon Chesto, business editor for the Patriot Ledger.

This program aired on August 12, 2010.
