Trump likes to claim Thanksgiving costs are down this year, but some holiday hosts are considering extraordinary measures to keep their meals under budget.
The president has claimed costs for this year's meal are down 25 percent, citing a misleadingly priced Thanksgiving meal basket listed online by Walmart, but the Washington Post reported on social media debates over the ethics of charging guests for their dinner.
"Nothing says happy holidays like a cover charge," the newspaper reported.
"With Thanksgiving here soon, you may have noticed online postings by would-be hosts asking whether it is okay to charge guests for their roast turkey and cranberry sauce" the report continued. "But it is part of a larger trend of people billing guests for food and drink that, depending on your point of view, is either a major breach of etiquette or simply pragmatic."
