You did not. And if you spent that much AND are that much of a bean-counter, then chances are you live well outside your means and have tons of credit card debt.

I often spend that much on a holiday meal.
We spend $400 on alcohol alone.

But that because I'm buying red wine, white wine, beer, brandy, cognac, whiskey, vodka, baileys. I would die if someone asked for something and I didn't have it.

Oh but would you die?

How about a nice, moderate meal and donate to charity? That much money for one meal is gross.

No thanks. You do you.
I will do a fancy meal. You don't tell other to donate to charity.

We have a stocked bar. There is no way that 20 guests would go through all of that alcohol even if they all left stumble bum drunk.

You should have an awful lot of that leftover for other parties.

Come over, eat dinner, drop food on the floor and not pick it up so it is stepped on, eat dessert and then go home without hanging out afterwards.

Yes, I absolutely do have enough for other parties. However, I only host 1-2 times a year and by the time that rolls around, I'm out of booze.

O.k....then you are using that booze for your own personal use throughout the year. It isn't all a party related expense.

If you picked up some Lean Cuisines and toothpaste while out doing your Thanksgiving shopping you would also not count those items as a Thanksgiving related expense....unless your guests are actually eating the Lean Cuisines and using the toothpaste.
