Thanksgiving can be a tough time for Minnesotans that are strapped with bills and don't have a lot of disposable income.  Or even for folks that are just trying to save some money at this time of the year as Christmas spending looms over us.

That's why this news of an affordable Thanksgiving meal that has everything you need and want is a welcome surprise.  Minnesota based retailer Target just announced they will sell an Thanksgiving dinner that will feed a family of four for just $25.

Many of the large retailers are trying to bring the shopping to their stores this Thanksgiving and that's good for the consumer.  It's evidenced by the fact that two other big retailers have announced similar deals to cut prices on Thanksgiving dinner.
