darrellandtammy Posted November 6, 2005 Posted November 6, 2005 Whats the going price for a Turkey in your area? And when do the sales normally start?
provresgrp Posted November 6, 2005 Posted November 6, 2005 You talking about frozen birds? If so, about .69 to 1.89 a lb, depending on where you go & what kind you get. Each year, I usually wait for the sales. Last year a local store had them for .17/lb as long as you spent $20 on other items (which is easy to do, we can always use a few extra groceries)
VonnegutFan Posted November 6, 2005 Posted November 6, 2005 I used to work for a natural foods store - $5.49/lb for an organic, fresh turkey. Yes, I know, unbelievble. But you won't believe how many we sold. Apparently quite delicious, but not like I'll know anytime soon :).
ryka Posted November 6, 2005 Posted November 6, 2005 I think they are like .69 a pound. I never pay for a turkey. In shoprite if you spend $300 from Oct to Dec.2 You can get a free turkey or use the coupon to get 10% off your order. i already have 2 coupons so I am using one for a turkey and the other to buy the rest of the stuff I need.

I believe around this part of Long Island its around $125 ... @
outnumbered Posted November 7, 2005 Posted November 7, 2005 Hmm, I'm not sure. I think one year I bought one for $13 but I don't know how big it was. I'm hoping for a free turkey again this year...sometimes the FRG gives them out.
JonathanM Posted November 7, 2005 Posted November 7, 2005 Kosher: 1.59/lb @ CostCo, Non-Kosher no clue.
Guest all2tired Posted November 7, 2005 Posted November 7, 2005 Ummm they're free with 5 certificates ($50 purchase gives you 1 certificate) I now have Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner for free.
best4less Posted November 7, 2005 Posted November 7, 2005 We have a store over here called PriceRite (they are owned by ShopRite) and everything there is WAY cheaper then regular supermarkets. The only major difference with this supermarket is 1. You either buy or bring your own shopping bags then bag your own stuff and 2. There is no Deli or seafood section. Other then that, they sell almost everything other supermarkets would sell. Anyway, they sell turkeys for Thanksgiving for .17 cents a pound! Needless to say, that is where we buy our turkey from lol. People were there last year buying 3 or 4.
mjmcca Posted November 7, 2005 Posted November 7, 2005 Free Turkey from Pathmark! I already have spent enough now i just have t wait till we get closer to Thanksgiving.
Gloey Posted November 7, 2005 Posted November 7, 2005 I'm not sure because DH usually does the shopping on Sat mornings while I'm sleeping. BUT I just found out my son and his wife and gd are coming after they make a "have to" visit to her cousin's for their first dinner. We will be invited to but are opting out since its in the middle of nowhere. I am seriously considering buying one of those "pre-cooked" dinners from Jewel! LOL I think you get everything for around 35.
ryka Posted November 7, 2005 Posted November 7, 2005 Wow ... $300 ??? I believe around this part of Long Island its around $125 ... @ Yea it's $300 for every 10% or free turkey. but you can only get up to 5 of them. I didn't think $300 a month was alot when it came to food cause I spend more then that for the month on food.
Gator Pam Posted November 7, 2005 Posted November 7, 2005 Jonathan, Costco has kosher turkeys? Which brand? We don't have Costco here in Gator Town, but perhaps if I tell the local Sam's Club that Costco carries them they'll bring some in as well.

erh12275 Posted November 7, 2005 Posted November 7, 2005 Sorry can't tell ya...I don't cook turkey..lol. However I do know they are on sale here because I saw one on the front of the Albertson's ad.
Gator Pam Posted November 7, 2005 Posted November 7, 2005 Empire. They range between 10 and 12lbsTodah!!
elena_398 Posted November 7, 2005 Posted November 7, 2005 I think at Giant Eagle or Fishers if you spend over $250 you get a free turkey. Good size too
msomnipotent Posted November 8, 2005 Posted November 8, 2005 I have to wait until just before Thanksgiving. I need an ostrich sized turkey and all the stores wait until a week before to start selling them. At least they are on sale by then. I usually get them for 69 cents or 99 cents, depending on the store.
elena_398 Posted November 8, 2005 Posted November 8, 2005 My mom does Thanksgiving so fortunately I don't have to buy one. She never lets my sister or I bring anything.
JanaBanana Posted November 8, 2005 Posted November 8, 2005 A Jenny Oh was 68 cents a pound at the Super Walmart....
Jenniferharrison82 Posted November 14, 2005 Posted November 14, 2005 I am not sure how much per pound. A local grocery store has a deal where you get a frozen turkey 12-14 pound, a ham, and some fixins for 18.00
treasure60 Posted November 14, 2005 Posted November 14, 2005 Turkey is in the Shaw's this week for .49/lb. I have no idea how much we spend on Thanksgiving..it's alot I know that much.
peanut92973 Posted November 14, 2005 Posted November 14, 2005 super kmart has butterballs for .79 a pound. i'm lucky i get mine free from work.
mrsbmb Posted November 14, 2005 Posted November 14, 2005 .49 lb here at "Market Basket" stores. i bought one instead of chicken last week because of the price. got a good sized one for a supper some night for like $4.76 for a 9+lb turkey. kathy
dswright Posted November 14, 2005 Posted November 14, 2005 1.09-1.29 per pound at Meijer. Take 8.00 off under 16 lbs. take 14.00 off over 16 lbs Makes a 16 lb turkey around 4.00. Must have an additional 10.00 purchase.
JazzMama Posted November 14, 2005 Posted November 14, 2005 Our sales started this week. The cheapest I've seen so far is $0.49/lb with a $10 additional purchase at Kroger. However, they usually go cheaper this week.
