TurboTax Deluxe Sales Hit $45 as Tax Season Looms
As tax season fast approaches, many individuals are left scrambling to find affordable options for filing their taxes. While there isn't a free government-provided alternative this year, taxpayers can still save some money on TurboTax, the widely-used tax preparation software.
In a significant discount, Amazon has slashed the deluxe desktop edition of TurboTax by 44%, bringing its price down to just $45. This represents a savings of $35 from the usual cost of $80, which should cover the needs of most Americans filing both state and federal taxes.
However, self-employed individuals will need to opt for the more expensive Business version of TurboTax, currently on sale for 42% off, or $54 off. It's essential to note that this version is only compatible with PCs running Windows 11 or macOS Sonoma, so older machines won't be able to handle it.
While taxpayers may have no choice but to purchase TurboTax, this discount offers a welcome relief from the costs associated with filing taxes. As tax season approaches, individuals should take advantage of this deal and file their taxes as soon as possible to avoid any last-minute stress or penalties.

. And don't even get me started on the Business version... who thought it was a good idea to only make it compatible with Windows 11 and macOS Sonoma? That's just a headache waiting to happen 
. Can't we just have a free or low-cost alternative like everyone else?
Like our grandparents' generation had to pay full price for everything, back in the day 
. But seriously, $45 for TurboTax Deluxe? That's still kinda steep for me, especially since I'm trying to save up for a gaming PC 
I mean, we're living in 2025 and it feels like we've made so little progress on affordability. Anyway, to all the self-employed folks out there, yeah, you gotta shell out more for Business version 
. Anyway, yeah, $45 for TurboTax Deluxe is a steal!
anyway, thanks for the heads up! I'll def be checking out the sale. hope it stays at this price 
! I know some people might be freaking out about the cost of filing taxes, but at least now we can get it done without breaking the bank 
It's like a breath of fresh air for those who need to file their taxes ASAP. Self-employed folks might have to cough up more cash for the Business version, but hey, at least it's on sale too 
. Just gotta make sure our computers can handle it, or we're stuck with last year's model 
. Fingers crossed this deal helps ease some of that tax stress 
.
! Do you think this discount will help reduce the stress of filing taxes?
Tax season is like, right around the corner! I'm not surprised Amazon is offering discounts on TurboTax, tbh. It's crazy how much people rely on those tax prep software, but at least it gives us some breathing room, you know? 
The $45 price point for the deluxe edition is pretty sweet - that's a significant chunk of change saved! 
Fingers crossed more deals come through like this one... it'd really help ease the tax stress for many people 
i mean i know its not free but 80 down to 45 is like a 50% discount lol its def worth it considering how stressful tax season can get 
especially with all the forms and whatnot i use it every year and its always been pretty solid, might actually consider switching from h&r block this time 
Now if they could just make it compatible with older computers, that'd be awesome 
. I remember back in my day, we just used a simple calculator and paper forms - life was much less stressful! Anyway, $45 for TurboTax Deluxe is still a pretty penny, but I guess it's better than paying that full price, right? Might as well take advantage of the sale while you can... don't wanna be stuck dealing with last-minute stress 
especially with tax season coming up, this discount is perfect timing. just make sure to check the system requirements before buying tho, dont wanna waste ur money on a incompatible version 
The fact that self-employed individuals have to pay more for TurboTax Business is like the Democrats' argument for affordable healthcare – it's about accessibility, but who gets left behind in the middle?
