The list of tax-exempt items ranges from fuel containers and flashlights to batteries and portable generators. Even cell phone batteries and radios are exempt this weekend, depending on the model. "While we can't know in advance when the next flood, tornado or hurricane may strike, we can make sure our families, homes and businesses have the supplies they need to face these and other emergencies," Hegar said."This tax holiday can help Texans save money while stocking up for emergency situations. Don't wait for disaster to strike. Take the time now to get prepared.
