Yesterday, Fry's Electronics offered Quicken Deluxe 2009 for $39.99, H&B for $64.99 and Premier for $59.99.

I may be mistaken but isn't this a little earlier than usual for the discounted versions to start showing up?

Hi, XS11E.

I bought Quicken 2009 Deluxe from Best Buy here in San Marcos for $39.99 last week. It was not in the usual place on the shelf where they still have Q2008; I had to ask a sales guy where to find it. The sticker on the box said $59.99, but the weekly ad in the newspaper said $39.99 - and that's what it scanned at checkout. I didn't notice prices for the other versions. Wal*Mart also had Deluxe for the same price a few days later.

Don;t mean to sound cranky, but that does not aswer my question: "I'm still confused about the advantages of Premier over DeLuxe. What do the extras really do?"

shows a listing of what you can do with Premier over DeLuxe, but what are the advantages? For example, I have not found the tax reports from Quicken to be all that useful, but maybe that is because I have the wrong categories assigned. Similarly, capital gains are to be taken with a grain of salt and checked in Excel, I find.

I downgraded from 2008P to 2009D as I don't use the extra features. So I saw no advantages.
