My Thanksgiving turkey 2008

Walmart has announced it will soon begin selling 12-pound turkeys for $5 each.

Keep in mind that is 40 cents a pound, while you can get Jennie-O premium basted turkeys right now at Fresh & Easy for 37 cents a pound.

Still,  the Walmart deal is convenient and it won’t last only one week, apparently since it’s part of a meal deal.

This is what Walmart is promising, from their press release:

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
