Thanksgiving is coming up and it’s coming up fast! Midterms, essays, group projects and more have been causing us to forget how close this gracious holiday truly is. Going home for Thanksgiving isn’t just about family! Thanksgiving break means that most of your friends will also be home! In order to make the most out of the few days you have at home here are some cute, easy & cheap ideas for friendsgiving!

Make it easy and have your Friendsgiving after Thanksgiving so you can bring leftovers!!! Lets all be honest most families always have leftovers from their huge meal so allow your friends to enjoy you mom’s cooking as well!! Its cheap and you get to see what other families eat on Thanksgiving!

Go to your friend group’s favorite spot and hang out!  It will allow you all to talk about your great new experiences and it will remind you of all your amazing memories, too. It can be a restaurant, a park, or wherever. All friend groups have that one special place that you all love!

Have a potluck! You can make it easy and you each bring a dish from your group’s favorite restaurants. It’s simple and you can all enjoy the different foods that you love!

Hang out at your local coffee shop!! It’s cosy and calm so you can make sure that you all catch up.
