eSmart Tax is Giving You Money!

By CC Staff

While April 15th may seem far off, it’s coming quickly and that means it’s time to start thinking about filing those taxes. Sure, many of you may rely on your parents to take care of that business, but there are a lot of us who have to take care of it on our own. And it’s expensive and stressful.

But what if I told you it didn’t have to be either one of those?

eSmart Tax, an online tax service, is letting 2.1 Million people file for taxes for free this year! The only catch: your last name has to be Johnson. (I know, I thought it was some sort of gross boy-joke too, but there’s a method to their madness.)

But fear not: if you happen to be like me and have a name that no one can pronounce that is not Johnson, those eSmart Tax guys are looking out for you, too, by letting us give away three $100 Visa gift cards! Want one? All you have to do to enter is hop on over to Twitter and Tweet the following message:

Hey @CollegeCandy, I want $100 courtesy of @thedaryljohnson #fileforfree!.

You can enter as many times as you want from now until Friday, January 29th at 4pm EST. That’s when we’ll put down our beer (what? It’s Friday!) and randomly draw three winners, which will be announced on Twitter! Then we’ll pick up our beer again and celebrate.

So let’s all give a big thank you to eSmart Tax for making our lives a little easier this tax season… and for the new jeans 3 of us will be able to snag on their tab!
