Don't you love the "up to" promotions? You probably could do just as well with the Entertainment book or any other discount program.

I'm not sure who is managing this promotion for them but, if they are located in Delray Beach, Florida they are legit and I believe they were bought out by a British tour company last year.

They do this type of promition for a lot of major companies.

You will get a cert where the discount increases as the fare does. When I called to use mine last fall I was able to use one certificate and book two tickets for the same itin and got the discount for both tickets.

If you can provide the name I might be able to confirm that it is the same outfit.

FWIW, I purchased TurboTax the past few years during the pre-season, only to see it given away at dozens of sites in February. (Sites like TRPrice). I am not buying it again!

Turbo Tax is such a waste of money when bought from them directly. Once the final version is released, most office supply stores have it for $9.99 with a $10 rebate, and some other incentives. Unless you need the delux or the professional wait until the stores are carring it, Staples and the others use it as a loss leader in January to get you in the store.

They have started calling already to get me to buy, every year I explain to them it's not worth it.

DenverPlat - received the same promotion, but at $29.99 instead of $39.99, since I ordered it last year. I like getting the deluxe edition, and not having to run around to find it, so I typically do order from Intuit (they also let you download one state edition for free, which I don't think you get when you buy it at a retailer) - but I think this year's promotion is bogus - those airline discounts will no doubt have all kinds of small print (which they don't tell you about upfront) making the offer worthless. I'm waiting for another offer to come along.
