cannot get past TT needs to save your tax return before continuing to e-file state return

[chasklink]

Why does TurboTax charge $24.99 to file a state (PA) return when one state has already been included in the purchase price?

[AshleighP]

If you're using the desktop version of TurboTax, we include one state program with the federal program. The $24.99 is the fee for efiling the state return (AKA, paying TurboTax to submit your taxes by efile instead of having to deal with printing and mailing everything in).

It costs TT $24.99 to forward an electronic file to PA?  I call B.S.  I can print out the file and mail it for about $2.00.

If you'd rather print and file by mail, you can definitely do that! Efiling through TurboTax is a service we offer, but you aren't required to use it.
