For those with Chase credit cards, check if you have a

I had one on my Freedom and a different one on my Sapphire.
It's either 30% cash back (max of $20 cashback on $66.67 purchase) -or- $5 back on $25+ purchase.
There are other deals for purchasing TurboTax software from retailers other than directly from TurboTax. But you can take advantage of these Chase Offers if you purchase additional services when filing your taxes (like purchasing additional state tax forms, audit protection, etc).

All State, if you are with them for car insurance, they have an email that went out on March 31st for 20% off.
This is what I would have paid without discounts, $294.65 including taxes and that $69 charge for efiling state.
With that 20% off, it only applied to the Expert Assist Premium, so it brought the Expert Assist Premium part down to $167.20 from $209.
On top of that, I used my Chase Freedom card offers for 30% cash back. So I am getting $20 back.
With the $69 state charge and taxes, I end up paying like $230.37
But I just discovered that I had a small window of time on March 31st that, had I filed then, TurboTax would also not have raised the price by $41. The email that stated this came in at 12:20 p.m. on March 31st. The price at that time was $168. The email with All state came in at 12:02 p.m. So if 20% off was applied then, the price would have been discounted to $134.40 and then $69.00 added for state filing (It is always $69, regardless of when you file on or after March 31st). With taxes, it would have come out to $215.58.
Then, I would have been able to take off another 30% off and receive that as cashback ($20). All in all, I would have paid $215.58-20 = $195.58.
Does TT jack up their prices as we get closer to the tax filing deadline?
Pro tip: Never use TurboTax or H&R block.
Something people don't know, they charge you fees out of your state return that they do not disclose. We tested this years ago. For us it was around an additional $200-250 if I remember correctly. The federal returns would be the same, but they take another $200-250 out of your return for using their software, in additional to the money you already spent buying the software. I don't think people realize this using their software. So once you pay for the turbotax software whatever amount you get it for, they take another $200-250 out of your state return as well. You end up paying the same amount of money as if you just hired a professional to do it for you.... Then you still have to pay additional $25 for state efile too....can you say RIPOFF?
FreeTaxUSA is great. Free federal and $16 for state efile. Credit Karama was the same as FTUSA, and $15 for state efile. , and CashAPP Taxes is actually completely free fed and state. All 3 of those allow for complex tax returns over the other "free" websites that only do simple tax returns.

Yes, which I think is a d move! But hey, they are a private corporation and we have a choice to not use their products to file. We choose to because we believe they are convenient on all the items we have to file. If not, we would either know how to manually file ourselves with good 'ol pen to paper and then envelope it to the IRS in our area or we would have hired a financial individual to file for us.
I bought TT download deluxe using Fidelity 25% discount for $52, got $20 statement credit with Amex.
I plan to use state e-file for $25 with BofA custom rewards card and get anyone $20 credit then.
