<p>Anybody finding discounts TurboTax? We usually use Deluxe edition, with State and one eFile. We’ve always bought the CD, but I do get tired of all the packaging. I’d consider software download if others have had good experiences. </p>
<p>Note - I am not interested in TaxCut etc. We like using TurboTax import for taking advantage of prior year inputs.</p>
<p>Do a google search for “_______ coupon codes” with the blank being whatever discount code you are looking for. Generally the discounts can be found on the retailmenot.com web site. </p>
<p>The search above takes me to <a href=“http://www.retailmenot.com/view/turbotax.com[/url]”>http://www.retailmenot.com/view/turbotax.com</a> and a 10% discount offer.</p>
<p>Thanks for the quick reply, cal! I found that link earlier, and it got me considering the online product. I’ll use your hint to check for other deals.</p>
<p>Costco will have $10 off their boxed edition if you don’t mind another box:</p>
<p>[Warehouse</a> Coupon Offers](<a href=“http://m.costco.com/warehouse-coupon-offers.html]Warehouse”>http://m.costco.com/warehouse-coupon-offers.html)</p>
<p>The reg price for Deluxe is $40.</p>
<p>Out of curiosity, does Costco stock the Premiere edition of Turbotax? </p>
<p>How do I find out when they run the promotion?</p>
<p>No problem having a box.</p>
<p>[TurboTax</a> Premier 2013 Federal + Efile](<a href=“http://m.costco.com/TurboTax-Premier-2013-Federal-%2B-Efile.product.100084267.html]TurboTax”>http://m.costco.com/TurboTax-Premier-2013-Federal-%2B-Efile.product.100084267.html)</p>
<p>The coupon offer starts on Jan 2 and goes for 3 weeks.</p>
<p>So funny… I had also found the Costco coupon but didn’t know the regular price. This to me looked like mail order - [TurboTax</a> Deluxe 2013 Federal + State + Efile](<a href=“http://m.costco.com/TurboTax-Deluxe-2013-Federal-%2B-State-%2B-Efile.product.100084254.html]TurboTax”>http://m.costco.com/TurboTax-Deluxe-2013-Federal-%2B-State-%2B-Efile.product.100084254.html). Same price at the store?</p>
<p>I think so. The mail order one has a $3 S&H.</p>
<p>Also a good product to use Staples coupons on. H seems to pick it up with a 25% off coupon every year. (We’ve never bought it at Costco, find better deals at staples).</p>
<p>We have been efiling directly through the turbotax website, no software needed. The price to file is comparable with no boxes, discs, driving, or shipping.</p>
<p>Thanks, blue. The old fashioned me feels like there should be CD to use if we ever needed it. But the website may have an even better way for backup. </p>
<p>NJ - I will watch for Staples coupons. You also reminded me that I sometimes get Office Depot coupons.</p>
<p>Our issue is we need to file NY & NJ state taxes, so we need to buy an extra state module, as you need to allocate income to the days worked in NYC…it’s a real PITA even when you are a CPA and know the routine.</p>
<p>Geez… that is a PITA. That’s the kind of thing that software is SUPPOSED to simplify.</p>
<p>Please, you have to do them in order…US, NYC, NY state, then NJ. </p>
<p>I use to travel at least 20% for work. It’s to a NJ resident’s benefit to move as much income as possible from NYC to NJ, as the tax rate is nearly half. I kept a calendar posted in my office that I marked every day I was out of the office. You do enter the stuff in the software and it does the calculation, but you need to manually count each day. And there is a difference between a NYC and NY state work day; had a few of those over the years.</p>
<p>So it’s time for me to decide whether to buy my Turbotax in a box or download. Import or last year’s info will work either way, right? Any other feedback? </p>
<p>We buy the box every year. Imports last years info just fine. Cheapest we’ve seen this year is $49.99. Last year we waited and got it for $39.99 at BJs with one of their coupons. Since we don’t have a college student applying for aid, I’ll just wait for a coupon!</p>
<p>It was on sale at amazon for 39.99, not sure if it’s still that price. </p>
<p>Paid a friend to pick up Turbotax Premiere from Costco. Ended up paying $66 and change including tax & shipping. </p>
<p>Still much cheaper and more convenient than Staples considering the nearest store is 1.6 miles and the fastest way there is to actually walk due to the roads/mass transit availability in the area. </p>
<p>Still checking… The Turbotax online price looked great (Deluxe $30) til I realized it did not include state . DS worked in Boston, so we probably need CO and MA - $38 each. I thought box sets included on state. Hmm…maybe I’m thinking of the one free online filing. </p>
