Today is Saturday. Thanksgiving is over. Black Friday is over. Until Christmas we are not going to be relieved from the bombardment of “DEALS” that we cannot pass. Did you know that there are other stores were you can get fantastic deals for other than electronics, cloths, and stuff?

Last night I had to take an emergency run to Winco, my local grocery store, because we were out of bacon. In our family, Saturday morning pancakes and bacon is a bigger tradition than Thanksgiving dinner.

In less than one week everyone in the United States and quite a number around the world will be sitting down for the most important meal of the entire years. It is a meal that families together. It is a meal where we give thanks for making it through another years.

Currently, there are massive turkey drives to help people who may not have the money to buy a turkey along with all the trimmings. Then there are those smaller families that will opt for having ome restaurant fix their Thanksgiving meal. Then there are the more traditional families that will start late Wednesday night and work until the serving of the biggest meal of the year.

The American Farm Bureau reports that for the first time since 2004 the cost of the Thanksgiving meal will drop. They are base it on a meal for ten people, at cost of $42.91. Personally, I think this quite low. Below is their break down for the meal.
