“For me, Thanksgiving is about spending time with family and really
just taking a day to enjoy food and everything that comes with it! We
watch football too. My family starts cooking on Wednesday, and we
do all of the prep that day. The stuffing is my favorite! I’ve visited
other people in my family like two years ago, and they didn’t cook
stuffing. I was so hurt by that. I think my mom just uses the box of
stuffing to make it, but I absolutely love it. We eat dinner really early
around two o’clock, and after that, we sit down with all of the Black
Friday catalogues. We flip through them and plan our next day. We
take that whole afternoon to find the biggest deals. I probably will
still spend all of my money this year even though it’ll mostly be online.
We may go to a store or two to get a doorbuster. But to stay safe this
year, we’ll mostly just have all of our laptops pulled up.”
