I found the workflow to be very simple. I have used TurboTax in the past and I felt that H&R Block at Home was less of a hassle because it was so simple. I was able to type in everything in a couple hours and there is a good error check section where I could review the forms. With each step there is a guide that explains what each field means. I found the explanations to be more clear than TurboTax for the most part.
Many features in this software is also present in other popular tax software packages. For example, there is a running count of your tax refund or underpayment on the right top corner. However, one thing that is unique about the H&R Block software is that in case you get audited you will get the assistance of an H&R Block enrolled agent, and I think that is a great value.
One thing that I felt was a bit lacking is that there were not that many companies where I could download investment data from so I had to type in my investment sales one by one. The software did not support popular investment firms like Fidelity, Vanguard, and Charles Schwab, so I requested that those companies be added in the next iteration of the software.
To win a free copy of H&R Block at Home, just leave a comment telling me your thoughts about taxes this year. Do you love them or hate them? Do you think you pay too much? A winner will be announced and contacted on 03/22/2010.
The winner was lucky number 7! Jay’s comment:
Our taxes are so confusing! I feel like I would never be able to figure it out-we have an extended family member do them for us so I would say I hate them!!

Today I received my Entertainment Book for the San Francisco/San Mateo area. This book is a bit smaller than the East Bay version because I guess not as many merchants participate. Nevertheless, I found quite a few buy one get one free coupons for local restaurants. Additionally, there are coupon codes to use at online retailers like Borders and ProFlowers. There are also $5 off coupons for Longs Drugs and Safeway. I am organizing all the coupons I can use during the year and I think I could save at least $300 at the restaurants and shops I already frequent with my husband. This coupon book is definitely an excellent deal for couples because essentially you are paying half price for many meals.
So now for the best part. You can win a copy of the 2009 Entertainment Book for your area for just commenting on this post. Give your best money saving tips or link to a blogpost where you saved money with coupons. Winners will be chosen randomly on 2/14/2009 and you will have to give your contact information to Entertainment Book’s marketing folks to claim your prize. I want the winner to start using the book as soon as possible!
