When NOT to Shop for Thanksgiving Dinner

One might think the day before Thanksgiving would be the worst possible day to hit the store, but NOPE . . . that’s not the case.

If you’re trying to avoid crowded parking lots, semi-bare shelves, adults basically throwin’ them ‘bows to get what they need before you grab it and then getting your personal space invaded in the check-out line . . . then you really don’t want to do your shopping on the Tuesday before Thanksgiving.

It’s TRUE!  The Tuesday before Thanksgiving is THE WORST day to get your Thanksgiving shopping done.

Why is that?  Well, because everyone else ASSUMES Wednesday will be the worst day and they try to beat the crowds by going on Tuesday.

So there you go. . .   When we all try to avoid each other, we end up picking the same day.  So go ahead, procrastinate that Thanksgiving shopping and find store that’s open 24 hours and hit them up late Wednesday night.

You’re welcome.
