Where To Get Wine Delivered On Thanksgiving Because You'll Prob Need It
When it comes to Thanksgiving, there are just some essentials that make the holiday feel complete. Of course, there's turkey and stuffing, pumpkin pie, and when you need something to wash all of that down, there's wine. Now, Thanksgiving is a notoriously busy holiday, and sometimes you forget (or run out of!) something. Never fear, 2017 is here to make sure that you don't want for anything on the tastiest Thursday in November. Read on to find out where to get wine delivered on Thanksgiving, so you can field all the questions about your personal life from your relatives while still keeping a smile plastered on your face.
Grocery shopping for Thanksgiving can be a daunting task. More specifically, shopping for just how much booze you might need, now that you've moved up from the kids' table, is nearly impossible. Until you were tasked with the responsibility, you probably didn't realize that the stress of making the perfect stuffing can make a glass of Cab Sauv disappear faster than you can whip up that box of Stove-Top Stuffing you bought (just in case).
As long as your phone is charged up — and you've downloaded the right apps — you won't have to worry about winning a game of "rock, paper, scissors" to snag the last glass of red from Aunt Betty. Here's what you need.
