Remember when you expected nothing more out of Thanksgiving than getting to eat too much, watch some football and share quality time — and perhaps a few political quibbles — with your loved ones?
Unfortunately, as a 27-year-old millennial, my honest answer to this question is “no.”
In my lifetime, Thanksgiving has always been tied to a sometimes-exciting, but always-distracting hitchhiker “holiday.”
Yup, I’m talking about Black Friday — whose terms are, ironically, gray enough (get it?) to bleed into Thursday.
Which means you might get too distracted by delicious-looking deals to enjoy the luxurious meal… and the time you get to spend with the people who made it.
21 Stores Closed on Thanksgiving
If you’ve been following our Purple Friday initiative, you know we’re big fans of spending time, not money, with your friends and family, especially over the holidays.

So pull your chair back in, grab a second helping of turkey and don’t worry about missing any deals. Missing the moment is a way bigger loss, anyway.
