Free Thanksgiving Turkey: Which Stores Offer Promotions

Turkey is considered the centerpiece of the Thanksgiving table, but it certainly isn't cheap. Where you can buy a turkey for free or very cheap on the eve of Thanksgiving, the publication said The Penny Hoarder.

The average price of a turkey last year was approximately $ 1,30 per pound (0,45 kg), which is $ 20,80 per bird weighing 16 pounds (7,2 kg), according to an annual survey by the American Federation of Farmers' Bureaux.

How to get a free turkey this year

To reduce holiday costs and attract more customers to their stores, many grocery chains are running special promotions that allow members of their bonus programs to receive a free turkey (or other element of the holiday table).

Of course, you shouldn't spend $ 100 on everything just to win a poultry that can be bought for $ 20. But if you're going to spend that money on organizing a party anyway, why not get a turkey for free?

Please be aware that these are online offers, however conditions may vary from store to store, so make sure your store is participating in the promotion ahead of time.

1. Giant

If you can earn 400 Giant Choice Reward points by November 26th, you can exchange them for free turkey certificate.

Free Turkey Certificates are available from November 13-26.

2. Shoprite

Earn points on purchases through November 26th—Thanksgiving—with the Price Plus Club Card.

After you spend a certain amount (you can find out the specific amount for each store in the chain here), show your Price Plus card to the cashier to receive free turkey, ham, turkey breast, kosher chicken, lasagne or tofurka.

You can pick up your free item any day up to and including Thanksgiving. Please note that the turkey is frozen, so it is best to pick it up ahead of time if you plan to prepare it for your gala dinner.

3.Weis Market

If you participate in bonus program Weis, your bonus points can get you Thanksgiving turkey for free.

It's pretty simple: you get one point for every dollar you spend, and 400 points are required to get a free turkey, tofurka, ham or lasagne.

This may seem like a lot - and it is - but the promotion applies to all purchases made from November 5th to November 26th.

Remember that points have a validity period, which is shown at the bottom of each receipt.
