Thanksgiving 2015 Group Selfie

For over ten years now Thanksgiving Dinner happens at our house. While preparing a meal for over 15 people (sometimes over 25 people) can be a little stressful, I find that staying organized and connected with those attending helps keep me sane.

Staying organized and connected with loved ones this Thanksgiving is made easier with my cell phone. Here’s 5 way I make that happen:

  • I create my Thanksgiving shopping and TO DO list on my phone so that it is easily accessible and with me at all times.

  • I also call the guests about anything they need to know about Thanksgiving dinner (to be honest, I would actually be sending them texts instead of calling them). This, of course, includes what they will need to bring (because everyone has to contribute).
  • During dinner, I capture special moments with video and photos and later sharing them on social media, which also allows me to stay connected with loved ones who weren’t able to be there with us.

  • I call loved ones who live far away to wish them a Happy Thanksgiving.
  • If I wanted to be adventurous, I could also look up new Thanksgiving recipes to try.

Want to enjoy a stress-free holiday with the minutes, text and data you need? I know I do! Well, TracFone can help make that happen with their new 90-day Smartphone Only plans for smartphone and BYOP® users.

Already have a phone you want to keep using? You can also Bring Your Own Phone to TracFone and sign up with a Smartphone Only plan. The Smartphone Only plans start for as low as $35 and are available online at tracfonewireless.com. *These new plans will provide all current TracFone plans benefits, including Unlimited Carryover, basic international calling and others, and start as low as $35.00 but these plans do not triple.

Are there any other ways in which you use your cell phone to stay organized and connected with loved ones this Thanksgiving? I’d love to hear them.
