I purchased last week Deluxe + State for $10 [$5 each]. So, how is this a deal at this inflated price? :/

As I pointed out in thread. This offer is for returning users and not ideal for new users who are encouraged to use that deal instead.

Not sure why you're getting the thumbs down but this is a good deal for returning users.
Taxact barely had any deals this year. Best I got was 50% fed. This deal is 50% off both fed and state.
Too late for me though. Thanks OP

I was a returning customer. I didnt sign-up as a new customer. However, I didn't use TaxAct last year so may be that's why managed to get the discount.

If you work and stay in a single state, try to see if CreditKarma's offer is enough for you or not. It is so far free.
I used it last year but this year they changed one condition. You can't stay and work in different states which disqualified me.

I am a returning user and was able to get the other 5$ deal. No new account created. Have been using tax act since last few years. Same account.

Did the price get doubled recently ? I had previously got 50% off Fed return deal for $20 Premier.
While filling the return it is now showing $40. Looks like the retail price also has gone up by 100% to $80.

I had been using TaxAct for a few years when their prices were low. But they keep jacking up their prices every year recently. Last year, I switched to FreeTaxUSA and will use their service this year as well. It's just $15 for everything (Fed + State + Stocks + K1 for business owner).

How do I get this deal? I'm a returning TaxAct user so I'm looking for 50% off. All of the links and "See Deal" buttons on this SD page do nothing (they just take me to this same SD page). If I go to SD coupons and click "Get Offer" on any of the TaxAct deals, I am told "No Coupon Code Required" and it takes me to the TaxAct home page with no discounts. None of these coupons were in Expired Deals. If I go directly to the TaxAct home page and make sure I am signed-out, it shows me the different products (Basic/Deluxe/Premier/Self-Employed) with NO DISCOUNTS. So much for "No Coupon Code Required", so much for slickdeals.

I don't use them any more. Used them for many years then they jacked their prices for no reason. It is a hassle to keep switching. I will NEVER go back to them at any price.

Try TaxHawk.

It worked for me, as I'm a returning user... but now that I'm almost done with my return, the price is back to full price. I'm going to have to call these bozos before I file again. What a nightmare... I'm beginning to loathe this TaxAct piece of terd.
