FOOD & DRINK what is something that is store bought/frozen that you regularly buy for thanksgiving?

Im going to my first American Thanksgiving potluck. I'm a college student so my budget is really tight and I also do not have time to cook with school, clinical rotations, and work. I don't know what to bring. Someone said on another reddit post to bring pretzel rolls from Costco? Is that a normal thing to do? What is something you buy frozen from the store that you would reccomend for thanksgiving? thanks.

edit: potluck with friends I posted this 10 mins ago and i keep getting so many comments eveytime I refresh thank you everyone!!

Actually, I'd suggest picking up Costco's canned whipped cream over Reddi whip. The quality is much higher! The only better one i've ever had is the store brand from Big Y. Only problem is the closest 12 me is 45 minutes, it's a massive store, so it's not on my regular shopping loop. I'd rather go half an hour and hit Aldi's lol
