I saw on Money Saving Mom that Target has their brand of turkey for .79 a lb.  I don't know if this will apply here due to our state laws but am going to check it out and see...hoping it does.  Also, we don't have a Super Target, but it has a pretty decent grocery section, just no deli, produce section (just one shelving unit with the basics), and so on.  Worth a try, though.

Saw that as well, I'm planning to go and see. We don't have a law like that in Arizona that I'm aware of but this is the best price I've seen without having to make additional purchases.
Good Luck Catherine!

I picked a turkey up last Saturday at our local WinCo for $0.87 cents a pound.  This is the first year in quite some time that we have bought one as in the past we have raised them.  I go shopping again the week of Thanksgiving and will see what deals they have on another turkey.

Our Publix has them for .59/#. I am so excited! I want to buy four, one for each month of Feb.,May, July, and September. This way hopefully we won't get burned out on turkey. I am thinking all of these will be a round $36...

Our Food Lion (regular chain grocery store) ad came in the mail yesterday, and features:

Grade A Basted Jennie-O Frozen Turkey for 55¢/pound
-card holders only ($1.59 without their card)
-only with a minimum purchase of $25 and limit one. 

The ad also shows:
All Natural, Gluten & Hormone Free Butterball Frozen Turkeys for 99¢/pound
-card holders only ($3.99 without card)
-no other restrictions

That said, we're headed to Mom & Dad's for Thanksgiving (not going to NYC after all), and they are smoking a bunch of different meats, so we only have to prepare the sides!  If I had a large enough freezer I would take advantage of the sale, but there's just no space in our side-by-side freezer as it is.  Maybe by next Thanksgiving our basement will be finished and our larger upright freezer in place!

our local stores has turkeys 48 cents a pound

I might end up getting one we will see. I need one for Thanksgiving but honey thinks a supplier might give us one - I am really torn as to what to do.

Wow, great price!  Depending on how much you like turkey, if it were me I'd probably still buy at least a couple to have later.  Well, more than a couple if I found them for that price, lol.  I can't get storebought whole chicken for that price here any more.
