I've been making Thanksgiving dinner for anywhere from 8 go 12 people over that 35-year span. Somehow, I never hit their figure for meal costs. Maybe my guests are thankful that I'm having so much difficulty being a cheapskate.

I went to the AFBF web site you highlighted with the thought of pointing them to your article. I could not see a way to contact them except to join, which I thought interesting. I have seen articles similar to yours from other writers so people seem to be aware of just how silly their claims are.

Thanks, Jeff. I can see why they’d want to avoid engaging with anyone taking a closer look at this. Like you said, the whole thing's just silly.

On the other side of T-Day spending, have a read of this truly unbelievable offering.

Apparently, it’s sold out.

Would love Doug’s take on this little offering….

Actually, I think they bought the expensive turkey. Last Saturday at Costco, non-organic turkeys were 99 cents a pound. But, you're right about the rest. Our Thanksgiving for 3 will cost far more than $55. (There will be days of leftovers, though.)

Happy Thanksgiving Crisis Investing Team and Subscribers!
