I used TT for years. FP notwithstanding, TT is just more convenient than using my own pencil and calculator, plus electronic filing, makes it worth the $29 or so. My wife decided to use a CPA this year because we're renting the condo and have a bunch of out of the ordinary expenses. I think we could still do it with TT, it's her decision, and her $250, so I won't argue.
