$2.50 x 25 = $62.50 for plates. But actually you need 50 plates, because of dessert, so either $125 for plates, or somebody has to wash and dry 25 plates.  And then OP either has to find a place to store 25 (or 50) plates, or OP has to give 25 (or 50) almost-brand-new plates to a thrift store.[/quote]

Now you have made me intervene to clarify an important issue regarding large scale Thanksgiving entertaining.  Although paper plates may not be used for the main course, it is perfectly acceptable to use paper plates for dessert.  One may buy the festive Thanksgiving themed plates for this purpose.  One usually finds these plates in the same store where your guests will purchase the plain white or cream colored note cards used to write thank you notes. It is all in the spirit of the holiday.

Duh. I said that 20 minutes ago. But you are correct about the cream colored (it is after Labor Day) note cards.[/quote]
