Sevier County , TN Residents (& Tax Free Sales Days)

I read yesterday that 11 million people pass through our area annually . WOW , no wonder traffic is so bad :) . Seriously though , it seems like with all the tourists that we have coming through our area , attraction prices keep going up . Its hard for homeschooling families with one income to visit these fun places (who doesn't love Sevier County Days ?) . I just wanted to share with some local families who might not know , that some area attractions have discounted rates for SC residents . I encourage you to call and ask . We used to take our kids to the Ripey's attractions (I have never seen a discounted rate for the aquarium except for SC Days) in Gatlinburg for a discounted price . Forbidden Caverns used to offer SC discounts too so check with them , that is an awesome place to visit . Some restaraunts offer SC discounts too like a certain percentage off your meal .  The Knifeworks on Hwy 66 is a great FREE option to everyone . Not only is it a place to buy knives , it also is a mini museum of sorts with lots of great displays so check it out


Don't forget about the Tax Free Days coming up August 3-5 . Check it out HERE .

    I see you are from Sevier County. I am, too. I didn't know if we knew each other.


    Hope you have a great week!

    Blessings,
