taxes

For those of you who still do your own taxes, I am sure you are aware of all the online resources listed on the irs web site. Most will do your federal taxes for free. There is a fee for state taxes. I checked them all (exhibiting what a deeply sick person I continue to be), and the prices range from $19.95 to $7.95. I, of course, went with one that was $7.95, and it my third year in a row using that particular site (taxactonline.com; taxsimple.com was the other $7.95 one). Last year, I compared the result of the online service with what my own pencil and paper result, and found the online service saved me money (I don't remember exactly how much, but between $300 and $50, I'm guessing). Good luck.
