Turbo Tax Deluxe INCLUDES one state e-file?

I purchased Turbo Tax Deluxe that indicated that I also could use one state e-file. But when I got to the transmit, I had to pay $25 additionally. WHY?

E-filing fee in desktop software

Did you purchase desktop software with state software included?  They sell Deluxe both with and without state software--so you have to be careful which one you choose.  And even if it does have the state software download included, that is for preparing the state.  There is an extra fee to e-file the state.  You can avoid the state e-file fee if you print and mail the state instead of e-filing it.
