Hi! My name is Witold (pronounced "vee-told") and I am the founder of BlackerFriday.com. After many years working in corporate america, I decided it was time to take a break to pursue my real passion — helping people save money. Ever since I was a little boy selling pencils in the playground to my kindergarden friends, later collecting aluminum cans from all my neighbors in elementary school to support my baseball card addiction, eventually becoming an eBay Power Seller in my older years to support my college education, I had an eye for spotting deals. I’ve taken what I have learned over the years and built Blacker Friday to bring you the best Black Friday rumors, predictions, and news website. Fortunately I'm not alone in this - We have a great team of dedicated folks helping make this site possible.

TurboTax Deluxe Service Codes & Discounts

Leave a comment

Updated on Saturday March 2, 2024: To help you file your taxes this year, we’re once again tracking all of best 2024 deals on TurboTax software. Here’s a look at all of our favorite offers and coupons that you can take advantage of today (this list is updated live, on an ongoing basis, through the Monday April 15th tax deadline).

TurboTax Discounts & Deals, March 2024:

  • Offer #1: File with TurboTax Deluxe from just $39. File your taxes with the online edition of TurboTax Deluxe when ordered directly from intuit.com. Normally priced at $69, this sale price is applied to your order when you visit their special offer page. Advertised prices will be valid through 11:59PM PST on March 31, 2024.

  • Offer #2: Is this the first time you’re thinking about completing and sending in your tax return on your own? Or maybe you just want to have a quick estimate on how much of a refund you can expect to see this year? Whatever the the reason, you can start and work on your tax return with TurboTax up until the point of filing. Then you can decide to purchase and file with TurboTax or not (you pay only when you file). Based on the information you enter, you’ll see the expected 2024 tax refund or the extra amount you’ll need to pay this year.

  • Offer #3: If you’re a student then it’s likely you’re not making much money right now. If so, you may actually be able to file a simple tax return for free with TurboTax this year and not pay even a penny for it (~37% of taxpayers qualify, form 1040 plus limited credits only). Even better yet, TurboTax can help you get over $1,000 back in education credits and deductions if you qualify. Plus they will help you with FAFSA filing by letting you print a FAFSA-friendly view of your completed tax form. Learn more.

  • Offer #4: The next time you login to your online banking account be sure to take a look at see if they have a deals page (I have a link in my online Bank of America account). Although we’re seeing less of these deals lately, TurboTax has a history of partnering with credit unions, banks and credit card companies and offering a discount to their clients. Some worth looking into are Capital One, Citi Bank, Vanguard, Merrill Lynch, AAA, Nasa Federal Credit Union, PenFed, and Discover Card – All of which we’ve seen these partner deals before.

  • Offer #5: If you or your spouse/parter where in active military service in any part of 2023 then you may be able to take advantage of the TurboTax’s military discount. All E1-E9 ranked military personnel get the online version of TurboTax Deluxe for free. TurboTax uses your military W-2 to verify rank and to apply the discount to your order. Only available for online versions as the desktop versions are excluded from the offer. All higher ranking military personnel will not qualify. This is an ongoing offer but only available to those who are eligible.

  • Offer #6: A number of stores sell TurboTax, including our favorite go-to place — Amazon. They usually offer a few bucks off, a 60-day money back guarantee, and even let you install the CD/Desktop version on several computers. However because their sale prices change so often (even up to several time a day on certain items) you’ll need to check out their site for today’s sale price. Unfortunately, Amazon’s TurboTax Refund Bonus Offer did not return for 2024.

TurboTax Amazon Refund Bonus Offer, March 2024 Update

Leave a comment

Updated on Saturday March 2, 2024: For all of you looking to take advantage of the TurboTax Amazon Refund Bonus Offer from years past — where you could have earned an extra 5% to 10% bonus on top of your federal refund in the form of an Amazon gift card — we’re sad to report that it’s no longer being offered here in 2024. It was a fantastic deal because if was just like getting free money for all of us that already do a majority of our shopping on Amazon. But wait… there’s still good news!

Amazon’s TurboTax Refund Bonus Offer Switches to H&R Block.

H&R Block’s tax filing software, which is a direct competitor to TurboTax, now offers pretty much the same type of extra bonus federal refund as we once saw with TurboTax. It’s an Amazon-only exclusive promotion available on qualifying versions of H&R Block software. Here’s how it works:

  1. Purchase an eligible version of H&R Block 2024 tax software (for the 2023 tax year) at amazon.com. You’ll be able to select from boxed CD and download versions of Basic, Deluxe, Premium and Premium & Business (with or without State returns included). All qualifying versions will have the “refund bonus” icon on the box image as shown below.

  2. Use the program to complete your tax return. When you’re ready to e-file, you will have the option of selecting to receive part of your federal individual income tax refund in the form of an Amazon gift card. You can designate any amount between a minimum of $100 and a maximum of $5,000.
  3. H&R Block will add an extra 2.75% to the total amount you designate to your Amazon gift card. For example, if you designate $500 of your federal tax refund toward the purchase of the gift card, H&R block will automatically add $13.75 to the total amount, bringing the total value of the gift card to $513.75.
  4. When your federal income tax refund has been sent by the IRS, H&R Block will email you your online Amazon Gift Card redemption code (typically within 3 days). Values of over $2000 will be sent via multiple gift cards.

Just remember, you won’t qualify for this offer if: (a) you are not eligible to receive a federal tax refund this year; (b) you decide to print your completed return and not e-file; (c) you do not agree to the posted Terms and Conditions; and/or (d) you are under the age of 18. The complete and official terms and conditions for this offer can be found here.
