Many grocers & meal delivery services will offer free and significantly discounted turkeys.

Last year (around November 8th) we saw a plethora of deals available to shoppers from local grocery stores to online meal delivery services for free or significantly discounted turkeys with purchase. However, chances are you need to buy food from the grocery store anyways so the discounted were free turkey will seem like a bonus! Or you could score a free turkey with Ibotta’s Thanksgiving promotion.

No free turkeys in your area? Target has a complete 4-person Thanksgiving meal deal for $20, and at ALDI you can feed 10 for under $50, and both options include your turkey!
