Thank you to United Way with #MyFreeTaxes for sponsoring this post today.
When I hear the word free I listen extra carefully. I’m such a penny pincher and budget mama that it’s probably not even funny, yet at the same time I’m glad I am and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
It’s tax season which in all honesty is my least favorite season aka holiday ever in the history known to man kind. Ok I’m just being honest! As a hard working, small business owner and entrepreneur I value every dime I make…well rather every penny I make because I work hard for it!!!! So tax season sometimes just doesn’t settle well with me. 
A great solution though is not having to pay to file my taxes. You can file free through My Free Taxes a platform through United Way if you earned less than $66,000 in 2017. There are no extra fees all while experts are watching and helping me…that’s what you call a WIN!
