TurboTax saves you time on your taxes. So you have more time to play ball.

 

We’re dropping 50 TurboTax Branded red & white basketballs across the GTA each equipped with a QR code. The lucky Torontonians who find them will receive the opportunity to do their taxes for free, and if they share a photo using #TurboTaxBallDrop they could win Raptors Merch and even a Ball SIGNED by Raptors Rookie and Rexdale’s own Dalano Banton.

 

Keep an eye out on courts near you on April 12 to find a ball, and visit our INSTAGRAM, TWITTER AND FACEBOOK accounts to get sneak peaks/hints to see where the balls will be.

 

Good luck and happy hunting!
