Thanksgiving will be here before you know it, so it’s time to start preparing. Marshalls is a great place to shop for everything from holiday decor and kitchen gadgets to travel necessities.
Since many retirees are likely on a fixed income, shopping at this off-price department store can help them stay on budget while scoring quality finds. Whether you’re hosting, dining locally or traveling for the holiday, you’ll likely be able to cross many items off your list after a Marshalls shopping trip.
Here’s a list of nine items retirees should seek out to prepare for Thanksgiving this year. Make sure you head to the store — or shop online — soon, as Marshall’s items aren’t always restocked when they sell out.
