December is generally considered one of the best months to get a good deal on a vehicle, because dealerships are eager to move out their inventory and meet their sales goals for the year, which often leads to bigger discounts and incentives.

A family member recently sent me a post from the Reddit Subreddit, r/wallstreetbets. The post was written by a McDonald’s worker who received a shipment of special coins at his restaurant. These coins allow the bearer to exchange a coin for one Big Mac. The post asks, “Since the U.S. dollar is no longer backed by gold, does this mean that the Big Mac coin is more stable than the dollar, since that coin is backed by Big Macs?”

‘Tis the season to indulge in special homemade treats, and these crunchy, savory crackers are sure to steal the show! Serve them alongside cocktails at any holiday gathering, package a batch as a thoughtful hostess gift, tuck them into a festive gift basket, or keep them all to yourself (after all, you’ve earned it!). These crackers are so irresistibly addictive, you might want to go ahead and make a double – or even triple – batch!
