Happy Thanksgiving!

First, as the title of this post says, Happy Thanksgiving. Thank your T-day cooks and for those not cooking give your cooks some help with today's set-up and clean-up. Whether your meal and day is traditional or non-traditional, enjoy it!

Second, it is that time of year again for huge seasonal savings. Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, Cyber Monday, and Giving Tuesday.

Normally, you would see post after post in this spot letting you know of the savings here, there and everywhere. The savings are still here, there and everywhere. But if you are looking for a particular genealogy or technology product or service, go to that website and look.

Want to know what the savings were last year or the year before? Use the labels on this website -- go to the prior year then November and look at the posts for last year. Or, click on the label for a product/service to see all the posts for that service. For example, MyHeritageDNA will bring up our prior posts which almost always involve reporting on a sale. So, when you go to the MyHeritage website you would clearly see that the current sale is its lowest price at $33. (Sale ends tomorrow, Friday, Nov. 24, 2023.)

Here is a tip. Use those shopping lists. It may seem intrusive but by adding an item to a shopping list, you can often see when the price of an item lowers. There are also price comparison tools out there too.

And don't forget to check the various websites often during this time. Sometimes there are Flash Sales that are not widely advertised. So, it can pay to be on a website's emailing list.

Enjoy the weekend everyone!

See you at our favorite library!
