Nationwide inflation and supply chain issues are
leaving stores empty and prices soaring ahead of the holiday that focuses on
food.
Many Long
Islanders are shopping early this year to avoid missing out on the holiday
staples or overpaying.
Even some of the smaller items on your Thanksgiving table this year might be a
little bit more expensive, like cranberry sauce, or even pumpkin.
The American Farm Bureau Federation says Thanksgiving dinner will cost families
14% more this year. Some shoppers say they don't go all out, they buy just what
they need.
