Sure! They always drop the price of the turkeys. even to the point of
losing money on them. "Lost leader" advertize the bird at low pricing,
then capitalze on the accessories. stuffing , cranberry, butter, flour
etc....

Oh.

I thought it was good news. I don't buy turkeys. I just eat 'em.

Eisboch
it's still good news.

now you get to eat 'em cheaper.

Wife said grocery prices are down. She stocked up on cheese.
Maybe 10 pounds.
Turkey is a twenty pounder.
Say, can you stuff a 20 pound turkey with 10 pounds of cheese?
Then deep fry it?

I paid $1.25 a pound today for a nice, fresh, Butterball turkey.
