The patterns don't seem to repeat year to year. Two years ago, the shops were bonused by February. I picked up a $75 shop for the refund transfer shop and found my Tax Dude in the process. Last year, his location wasn't shopped.
This year, I got a shop for $30. It was an independent preparer and the location was closed. I picked up another one with same MSC, but they charged to meet in person.
I ended up going with a franchise for $60 and $600 toward my $710 fees. I was good with that.
