Thursday thoughts: Best deals for your BBQ this weekend

Check out the best deals for your holiday BBQ this weekend! You'll find everything from hot dogs to Italian ice and even some freebies!

Many of these deals will be featured on the 12:30 news segment today, but this is a longer list of deals than those on the news. Feel free to post any others you find!

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend and please take some time to remember the reason for the holiday - to honor and commemorate our U.S. soldiers who have died in service to our country. My thanks to all our soldiers past and present for all you have done and continue to do each and every day.
