I recently was selected to host a Turbo Tax You House Party from www.HouseParty.com. I decided to have the party on the designated day of Saturday, February 7th. Of course I had to dive right in and open the box to see what was included in the kit.
I had to invite at least 10 guests to the party. Inviting 10 people is not hard. Now the question is what are we going to do at the party. This time I did it a little different and we kept it pretty low-key. Everyone (adult) who attended received a gift card with a code on it to get 50% off of Turbo Tax. The bonus for me was because I was hosting this party I was going to get a code to get Turbo Tax for free!
The party pack included the following:
- 10 gift cards with a 50% off code for Turbo Tax
- Props for pictures
- 10 folders to help you organize and store information for taxes
- Cup Cozies
- Pad of paper for making notes
- Poster to hang for decoration
- Balloons to liven up the party
To prepare and decorate for the party I decided to set up the kitchen table. The day before the party I made cookies so everyone could have a little snack to nibble on while we talked about taxes and filing. For those who didn’t want cookies I put out some M&Ms. I blew the balloons up and put them all over the table. I arranged the folders at each place setting, along with water in the cozy, and a prop to use for pictures if they want.
Everyone had a good time and we basically just hung out and conversed. I got out my laptop to help and show everyone how easy it was to get on Turbo Tax and use it. When it came to getting pictures I hired my five-year old S to take them for us. He is pretty good at taking pictures. #HAPPYYOUYEAR
