Well, maybe not so many thankful turkeys here in the states, as the most common main course on Thanksgiving is turkey, those poor semi-flightless birds. They can't even do Black Friday shopping ;)
I'll be hitting the usual suspects online over the next 24 hrs or so: Best Buy, Amazon, TigerDirect, Geeks... etc.
Many of the publishers on RPGNow are also running sales for the holiday weekend (or longer). Goodman Games is 33% off, Louis Porter Jr has his stuff running 50-80% off, Fat Dragon Games is discounting from 15-50% - heck, just click here for the list ;)
Enjoy the day. Eat Well. Shop hard! heh
