    I could really use this, it costs so much to have a professional do my taxes. I live in New York so therefore I am also a procrastinator. It's not unusual for my taxes to be filed on April 14.

    I could really use Turbo Tax Software. It would really come in handy especially since my family always seems to wait until the last minute to do taxes and it could easily help us discern whether or not we've made mistakes calculating how much we owe, etc. This is a great giveaway and I really hope I win. Thanks.
