Oh! I think you are right! I hope so for all those that are affected. I obviously read it as they wouldn't get it at all. After Thanksgiving is better than not at all. Thanks for the correction.

I have a host that closed yesterday, but is leaving Friday to spend Thanksgiving with family in SC. I told her I didn't think she'd have her turkey coupon before leaving...and she said "Oh well, that's okay - I can always use a turkey!" That just made me smile. She worked hard to get her show closed for the Turkey, but she's not really worried about when she gets it!
