Location: Market Pulse: Texas Has a Tax-Free Weekend August 7 to 9. Here Is What It Actually Saves You.

What was wrong: The New Mexico holiday dates cited a 2026-07-24 release PDF on tax.newmexico.gov.

What it now says: The same dates now cite https://www.tax.newmexico.gov/news-alerts/tax-holiday/, the department's tax-holiday landing page, which states them in plain text. The dates themselves are unchanged.

Why it was wrong and how it was caught: 2026-08-01. sales-tax-holiday-what-it-saves-august-2026. The New Mexico holiday dates are correct and confirmed. The original citation pointed at a release PDF that does not reliably yield extractable text on re-fetch, making the citation fragile to verify. Citation swapped to the New Mexico Taxation and Revenue tax-holiday landing page, which states the dates in plain text. No figure changed; source stability only.
