Cost

I have been using Turbotax for many years. I usually go to Sam's Club and purchase a disk. The new computer I have has no CD Drive. If I download online there is no discount as at Sam's. Is it $90 to file plus no free state?

Try Amazon. They typically offer some of the lowest prices and you can download direct from their site after you purchase the product.

If you buy the Desktop download program it is exactly the same as the CD.   You install it and get 1 free state program download.  Then you can efile 5 federal returns for free.  But each state efile (including the first one) is $25 to efile or you can print and mail state for free.   You can buy the download from Sams or if you get the CD you can also download the program.

The download of TurboTax Deluxe is $80 and includes one free state. There is an additional charge for state e-filing, the same as with the CD.

If you see a price of $90 like for Premier that is for the Online web version not the Desktop CD/Download program.  Online is very different.  

You need to buy the Desktop program from here

Gee I don't see any Turbo Tax at Sams Club online at all.  If you do buy the CD in the store  you can download the program using the License Code in the box instead.  See the link I posted above.
