For those in the US: Learn how to file your own taxes. It's really simple for the large majority of people, and usually just consists of copying numbers into boxes off a sheet your employer made for you. After you've done it once, subsequent times you'll probably have it done yourself in less than half an hour.

You can do it for free on a ton of sites unless you make significant income, freetaxusa is typically the most highly recommended one.

Isn't the IRS rolling out an actual free filing program this year?

Yes, I'm not sure if it'll be ready by this year's tax season or not, but it was happening. Last I heard they were doing some limited runs on it.
