The Thanksgiving holiday is obviously looking different these days. You might be celebrating with less family and friends to stay safe during the pandemic but that doesn’t mean you can’t still enjoy some of your favorite traditions. For me it starts with a hearty afternoon meal with turkey, mashed taters, stuffing, and all of the rest. Later on in the day I enjoy some special cocktails too. Such as an Irish Mule. Some Jameson, ginger beer, lime, and ice. Pretty simple.

Best part is today and other Thursday’s throughout the year Hy-Vee has Thirsty Thursday sales. It means you earn 1 cent on your Fuel Saver card for every bottle or can of beer you buy. You can also earn 10 cents per gallon on every 750ml or larger bottle of wine or spirits. It’s a great day to stock up and save money at the pump. So you better believe I’m heading to my nearest Hy-Vee and grabbing some Jameson and ginger beer and if my math is correct I am adding up to 16 cents on my Fuel Saver card. Not bad at all. I always encourage you to enjoy the local craft beer selections from our great breweries in Nebraska that you can find at Hy-Vee. Best selection in town.

And all of those food items that I mentioned for my dinner, yeah you can get all of that at your nearest Hy-Vee. If you’re finding yourself too busy for Thanksgiving, Hy-Vee can do the cooking for you, or you can get great recipe ideas. Just go to HyVee.com.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Be safe.
