Two-thirds of Americans say rising prices across the board will affect their Thanksgiving plans this year, a survey from The Vacationer revealed.

The survey asked respondents if high levels of inflation are affecting their Thanksgiving plans this year. The vast majority said the country’s current economic state is, in fact, affecting their plans in some way. About a quarter, 24.73 percent, attributed the issues to the high cost of food, while 16.75 attributed it to the increased travel cost “due to gas prices.” Another 25.02 percent said both the increased cost of food and gas will affect their plans.

We Americans have so much to be thankful for, even in bad times. Give thanks for even small things.

While the economy is a minor factor, I had too many requests for my 4-cheese cajun lasagna to stick to traditional turkey and stuffing. But FJB nonetheless.

Try adding some sawdust and hamburger grease, if you can afford the latter. Yummy!

Can’t get much cheaper food than a turkey loss leader at .49/lb.

Make a big turkey, freeze the leftovers, have turkey stir fry once a week through December.

That is because so very few people plan for economic down swings or inflation. I do.

Let me just say I never ran out of toilet paper in the last three years and I will eat well, again, this Thanksgiving.

I think it’s beeter than the last two years, when there was money but less food selection and no one would come to your house anyway.
