There’s an old adage that says there are two guarantees in life: Death and taxes. And given that pretty much nobody is ever really “excited” to do their taxes, we figured you all deserved a better incentive to get them done and out of the way. If there’s no way you’re going to be excited about doing taxes, at least we can make it a bit more affordable to get help with them so you get the maximum refund possible. To make PowerPerks even better, we’re also including two other major retailers this month, just for fun!
