Last week, the American Farm Bureau Federation released their annual study on the cost of serving Thanksgiving dinner. And they found the average cost of a 10-person dinner, including turkey, lots of sides, and dessert, is $49.20. Not sure what grocery store they're shopping at because NO ONE here in the real world thinks they can host Thanksgiving that cheap. Spending $50 is such a ridiculous notion that Harris didn't even ask about that small of an amount.
In a new nationwide survey by Harris Interactive:
Seven out of 10 Americans will spend at LEAST $100 to host Thanksgiving.
60% of people plan to save money by using coupons
52% of people believe it will cost them between $100 and $250.
37% will shop at a warehouse store
34% will ask their guests to bring a dish.
31% of Americans who are hosting Thanksgiving think they'll spend under $100.
10% are planning to play a VERY dangerous game and wait until the last possible second to go shopping, hoping that stores will slash prices to empty out their inventory.
