I'm very particular about which companies I promote on the blog. I get daily offers from companies that want to partner with The Non-Consumer Advocate, and I turn down 99.99% of them. Because seriously, what kind of hypocrite would I be to write a blog about not buying new and unnecessary stuff and then turn around to stamp my name on endless consumer goods?

But I always feel good about lending my name to Intuit's TurboTax. My husband and I use them to prepare our taxes, and as much as I would love to not spend money on taxes, I do love schools, libraries, safe drinking water, paved roads, disaster relief, public transportation, and properly maintained infrastructure. (You know, the good things that our tax dollars pay for.)

And that's why I reached out to TurboTax to set up a giveaway. We used to hire an expensive accountant to do our taxes. This was leftover from when my husband ran his own commercial photo studio and needed to depreciate his equipment, and the job was over his head. But I finally convinced him to at least try doing our own taxes. We haven't looked back. Our taxes are complicated by my extra income (and expenses) from cleaning my mother's guest cottages and running a certain little blog. But that's made easy with TurboTax, which gently walks us through the finicky stuff.

Today I have two online deluxe versions to give away, which include both the federal and state filing. (I know it says "State additional," but I've been assured that the state is included.)

To enter to win, all you have to do is write your name in the comments section of the blog. I will randomly choose the winners on Sunday, March 5th at 9 P.M. PST. Winners will be provided with product codes.

Good luck, and happy taxing! May your tax refunds be large and plentiful!

  1. Ok, I'm not sure how Turbotax works (I'm a tiny bit of a Luddite I must admit). Can it be used year to year or do you buy it yearly? If you can use it year to year, I'd love to be included. If not then please don't include me because my taxes are done for the year.
    Thanks, Pattilou

    1. Turbotax changes every year to keep up with tax laws. You do your taxes on the website, and pay when you file (although I believe it's free if all you're filing is a 1099), so it's not something you can pay for once and keep using. There's usually a coupon code on RetailMeNot and similar sites. It does store your past years' tax info, so you don't have to re-enter all your information the next year. State taxes are an additional fee, but I use my state treasurer's website instead of Turbotax for those. I used to do my taxes by hand on paper, and Turbotax is extremely worth it for saving time, helping you make sure you take all the deductions you can and doing the math for you.

  2. I already have my copy but I want to also talk about how easy it is to use the deluxe version. Turbo Tax has the ability to upload your data which makes it even easier to use, so I give it the thumbs up as well!

  3. I LOVE Turbo Tax! Already used it for this year. It makes things so much easier and simpler. A lot less tax-related fights around our house since we started using it. 🙂

  4. Teresa Weber-Freeman. Would love it. Freelance graphics, now that I have so little business it's very expensive to hire my guy every year for over 20 years. And if not I'll look into it anyway.

  5. A question though... My tax man uses software. Is it possible that he uses TurboTax or would that be only for individuals and not for professionals. He made a mistake last year and it caused a problem for me, so why not do it myself? But maybe too complicated.

  6. I've already done my taxes through TurboTax this year so I won't be entering the giveaway...but wanted to shout my praises for them! We have straight forward taxes that and it jut makes sense to spend $30ish on TurboTax rather than $150+ on a tax professional. Although, we do spend an extra $25 having one of my dad's employees do our city taxes...we have a RITA system and it so so over my head that I don't even want to bother!
