Wilmington DE Tax-Free Shopping Getaway
Delaware is one of just five states offering tax-free shopping, along with Alaska, New Hampshire, Montana and Oregon. That means shoppers visiting from nearby Pennsylvania and Maryland can save 6% on all purchases. For New Yorkers just 2.5 hours away in Manhattan, the savings is even greater – close to 9%! That percentage can really add up if you’re shopping for big ticket items like electronics, appliances, cars, or jewelry.
Wilmington, Delaware is the perfect destination for a getaway, with its close proximity to many of the state’s best shopping centers – and an even better destination if you’re looking to buy a move-in ready home, such as the Delaware condos and townhomes at master-planned community Darley Green.
