Desktop Deluxe comes in 2 versions--with or without a state program.
If your desktop program is the Deluxe combo version (prepares both Federal and State returns), it includes a free state program with which to prepare an unlimited number of state returns of that one state. However, there is a 24.99 state efile fee for each state (except no efile fee for New York state). The state efile fee was 19.99 until March 1, then since then it has been 24.99. There is no fee to print and mail a state return.
