It should still be $70. Did you maybe add something extra? Review your TurboTax fees by using the instructions I'm linking below.

@mrthirsty Log out of your TurboTax program. Then clear your computer's cache, delete browsing history and delete cookies. You may even need to use a different browser.
The current price is $70. But it will increase on March 1. Hopefully you can get this straightened out. Don't file until it's fixed.
Edited after original answer: And state return should be $40.

Thanks for the help ... i have already done all that, same price. how are you confirming that early bird is in fact supposed to be $70 and $40 still? can you post a pic of? below is what they have listed presently on their products page, so wondering if they just stopped honoring the early bird discount? don't know, banner at top just says "early bird, up to $30 off, blah blah" ... these peoples non transparent practices on pricing is pathetic ... does anyone that works for them read this page??

@mrthirsty Don't know what website you are using to see that price. The TurboTax website for the online editions shows the Premier online edition at $70 - https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/online/

ok, will start with the good news. i opened a case through "contact us" and after 10 min on hold and wading through prompts i got an actual person. after the normal this and that they shared my screen and saw that they were in fact not extending me the early bird pricing. they didn't know why or how to fix it, so I agreed to a 20% discount code which knocked me down to only paying $2 more than advertised. i'm not complaining about that per se, because after wasting a couple of hours on this already i was happy to escape finally. See the pic below ...
My bigger point is that no way was this just a technical coincidence. Imagine all the people they probably do this to that don't have the time or inclination to argue over $30. Non-transparent pricing (misleading, confusing, however you chose to describe it), difficult customer service, and all the rest is just more unethical business from big tech. I have used this company for 15 plus years now, and they have raised their rates every year since 2015 at least. Their software is great, everything outside of that not so much.
Sincere thanks to everyone who assisted me on this. Hopefully my case is anomalous.

I had the same issue. I took a screen shot of the prices when I started and now they will not honor them.
There was no wording of an expiration date and no notice that it would expire. I am a 15+ year user of Turbo Tax and am training my kids on it. We will leave over this issue!

To get the special you had to *pay* before it expired. You could pay anytime prior to filing.
