According to THIS SITE, Wal-mart is stepping up to help us make Thanksgiving dinner for $20 to feed 8 people. Here are the details, directly from their site:
A turkey dinner for eight as low as $20
According to a survey by the American Farm Bureau Federation, last year’s average cost of a turkey was roughly $1.19 per pound. Beginning today, select Grade A turkeys are available for 40 cents per pound at Walmart.* These gobblers are part of Walmart’s $20 Thanksgiving menu guaranteeing family favorites will be on the dinner table this holiday season. Walmart’s $20 Thanksgiving feast includes:
- One 12-pound Grade A turkey*
- Three 11 to 15.5-ounce cans Green Giant vegetables
- Two 14-ounce cans Ocean Spray cranberry sauce
- Three 6-ounce boxes of Stove Top stuffing
- One 5-pound bag of red potatoes
- One 12-count package of Sara Lee dinner rolls
- One 22-ounce pumpkin roll cake
As most of you know, I haven’t been much of a Wal-mart fan….but I think it is great that they are stepping up for those who don’t use coupons, to be able to make a very affordable Thanksgiving day feast. This will be my first year attempting EVERYTHING on my own. Because, my girls are 4yo and 3yo this year…..I want them to start experiencing Thanksgiving the way I did, lots of food and then lots of couch time.
Just kidding about the couch time.
