Happy-Hour Hit list: Thanksgiving
Since last year, the average cost of milk has decreased 92 cents per gallon, and turkey has gone down by three cents a pound, putting the median cost of a Thanksgiving dinner for 10 people at $42.91, according to the American Farm Bureau Federation. So there’s plenty of dough left over for cocktails at these suburban bars. Take the relatives after you put away the pie.
