Did taxes for four people this year (myself, my fiancee, and my
parents) using State Farm Bank's free TurboTax Deluxe.  E-filed
everything (including two state taxes) at no cost to me.

Just open any State Farm Bank account (including one of their no-fee
credit cards) and every January you can log in and follow their special
link to Turbotax to do your taxes and e-file for free.

No link to State Farm other than as a satisfied customer for many years.
