Was actually thinking of going out and shooting mine, lol.
But Harris Teeter has a GREAT deal until Tuesday on frozen butterballs - .39 cents a pound!
The .39 a pound is as long as you spend $40 on other groceries (before coupons). Which still is a great deal. Since its just my SO and I for Thanksgiving, we usually just get a 3lb turkey breast. We got one from Walmart last year for super cheap, but noticed the other day that they're not carrying them this year. So I was thinking of getting a small whole Turkey this year from Teeter... Would end up being about the same price if I can find just the breast somewhere, and I can use the leftover Turkey for plenty of other stuff.

I'll probably get the free frozen Butterball turkey from Ingles. I used to like to either get a fresh Shadybrook Farms turkey & grind & freeze the raw turkey & then make soup with the carcas, or get a free ham & make bean soup & freeze it, then buy a cheap chicken to cook for Thanksgiving. I don't have those options here, so I'll get the frozen bird & cook it, then freeze up most of it for future use.
Definitely check Earth Fare and possibly a local butcher. Butterballs and the like may be great deals this time of year, but check the ingredients. They are not just turkey - all are injected with sodium filled broth and enhancers. If you're sensitive to sodium and preservatives, a fresh turkey is the way to go.
Food Lion has the frozen turkey for .39 lb as well, although not Butterball if that matters to you. You must buy $35 worth of other food.
