Cost of Thanksgiving Dinner: Starting in 1986, the American Farm Bureau Federation (AFBF) calculated the cost of thanksgiving dinner for a family of 10. In 2024, the cost is $58.08 which is $5.81 per person. This is 5% less than last year but 19% higher than 2019 pre-pandemic. 

“#Gratitude turns what we have into #enough.” Many people want a cake but forget they have flour, milk, eggs, sugar, and an oven. They might feel sad because they didn't get the cake. The important thing is to see and be thankful for the ingredients you do have. Sometimes, we focus too much on what we don't have, instead of using and #appreciating what we already do. Remember to be #grateful for what you have and make the most of it. #LiFeGPS #readersareleaders #TrybeC2C #trybe #hospitality #shorttermrentals #vacationrentals #airbnb #vrbo #financialfreedom #financialliteracy #gulfshores #alabama #kentucky #lakelife #saltlife #beachlife #financialindependence #veteranownedbusiness #veteran #marine #veteranownedbusiness #femalefounders #baldwincounty #growth #hospitality #FounderOS #Founder #FounderOperatingSystem ♻️ Repost to help your network of friends & professionals follow https://lnkd.in/dhZh4zNt for more.
