I haven’t bought my Thanksgiving turkey yet because I don’t have a lot of room in my freezer. But since I’m running out of time, I figured I’d better start checking around to see who’s got the best deal. After scanning the grocery store ads, I came up with this list of Thanksgiving turkey deals. Some require an additional minimum purchase, which might not be a problem if you’re buying your bird at the same time you’re doing your weekly shopping. You’ll also need your rewards card to get the discounts.
