@Kolgen Your TurboTax fee is not based on your income. The fee is based on the simplicity or complexity of your tax return. If you have a very simple return that requires ONLY a Form 1040, you can use the Free Edition. If you enter anything at all that requires the use of additional forms or schedules, it upgrades you to a paid version.
Use this IRS site for other ways to file for free. There are 8 free software versions available from the IRS Free File site

Or—if you live in certain states you may be eligible to use the new IRS Direct File
