Karine Jean-Pierre: This Thanksgiving, Americans Should Be Thankful for Prices Falling Two Years in a Row

EXCERPT:

JEAN-PIERRE: “And on a related note, as Americans prepare for Thanksgiving, there’s one more thing to be thankful for. Much needed relief at the grocery store and the gas pump. For the second year in a row, the average cost of a Thanksgiving meal is falling, and many grocery chains are offering deals for the holiday. According to the American Farm Bureau, the average price of the typical Thanksgiving dinner fell 5 percent, with Turkey prices down 6 percent. And as more Americans are getting ready to travel to see family members and loved ones, the price of gas has fallen to its lowest point in more than three years.”
