Good Grief the Thanksgiving count dips into the 30's tomorrow! That doesn't seem possible!

I think today will be our final true mowing session here at home. After today it turns cold again and I think that we will be mulching up leaves the rest of this month and the beginning of November.

Have a great Saturday!

Right! Where did the last 30 days go?

Every year I like to keep an eye on the offerings of a local grocery store that offers Take and Bake Thanksgiving Dinners and the prices. I have purchased them at least twice in the past and it was pretty good and the convenience was nice, especially the year I ended up being pretty sick the weekend before and the week of Thanksgiving.

Here is this year's data:

The Holiday Turkey Dinner (serves 12-14) stayed the same at $179.99 - 0%
White Meat Turkey Dinner (serves 12-14) increased to $239.99 an increase of $40.00 - +20%
Holiday Turkey Feast for 4 went up by $10.00 to $109.99 - +22%
Glazed Ham Feast for 4 is at $79.99, up from $69.99 - +14%
3 one pound sides cost $12.00 last year and increased to $15.00 - +25%

Overall, it was to be expected and I will update what an rough equivalent would cost me to make sometime soon and keep an eye on the sales flyers.

Not shocked by the increases because that seems to be everything everywhere, but am surprised that the Holiday Turkey Dinner stayed the same price.

That is surprising!
