SALE ALERT - Turkey

[miss_thenorth]

Our thanksgiving has passed. However, you guys got it good. the cheapest we ever have here for turkey is 99 cents a pound--and ppl are lined up for that. One year, i broke my No Walmart rule and got in line for their 99 cent turkeys. Limit two. :/

Albertson's still has a price match ad this week.

King Soopers has 15lb turkeys for $6/each.

Not 19, but not bad at all. I need to get going and get 8 more birds!

Because of my dad's passing I have been unable to watch for sales. A lady from my church did call and give me a heads up that it was .29 a pound (limit 3 with a $10 purchase) last night but I was to exhausted to go.
So you all are way ahead of me in getting the turkeys now!

I picked up a 16lb turkey yesterday at Von's(safeway) with a 25 dollar purchase. It was 5 bucks, which I think worked out to be 31 cents per lb.

It was one of those "Is this a Candid Camera moment?" When I opened the glass freezer door like 6 Butter balls came rolling out all over the floor. My poor 5yo was so embarrassed.

Gina, too funny.

Geeze, we're still holding at .49 at all stores in my area. I'm thinking there will be a weekend special sale this week or next. I am stocking up on the other stuff too like flour and sugar. i don't use much of that stuff, but i may as well get some cheap while i can. my shift button just quit working, how wierd :/

Cheapest I can find is .49. The other two stores are giving away free stuff if you buy a turkey at regular price, which I probably wouldn't buy most of the "free" stuff anyway so it's no deal. Sad to hear that Aldi has no sale. They were my best chance IF I spring for gas to go to the big city.

Well, I didn't order turkeys this year just cuz it's really so much cheaper to buy them. If I can raise my own turkeys (breed them) it might be cost effective enough. But by the time I get that up and running I hope to have LOTS of goose available sooooo ... I might not need a dozen turkeys a year after all.

Last year I was all stocked up (3 turkeys all 24 lb or more) and my freezer quit on me. I have not cooked another whole turkey since I had to eat all those, LOL. Luckily the house was near-freezing in the back anyway, but I was seriously turkeyed-out!

yeah we don't have much freezer space so I'm hoping to get a few to try and can... Then have like 2 whole ones in the freezer (that's the plan anyhow...) If I can find them cheap enough
