The turkey hunt?

Gee, I know I keep on about prices here but I just can't help it. Last Tuesday I bought a frozen turkey at $1.79 lb. I figured, that is about as good as it's going to get around here. Mind you there is only one grocery store in town so not a lot of choices.

Kirk felt I bought it too soon as he figured prices should go down the closer we get to Thanksgiving. (which is Oct. 8 here in Canada) He, of course, is still thinking in North Carolina mode and prices. I had to remind him the days of 69 cents per lb for turkey is not going to happen here.

Well, low and behold, the local IGA flyer arrived today. For all your Thanksgiving needs, your best price store brand frozen turkey is $1.99 lb. and it goes up from there. Yippee!

In short, Kirk was glad I shopped early. Besides, it might take until next week to thaw.

Happy Columbus Day. (click on the picture to find the turkey)
