Every November, Americans gather with family and friends to give thanks and celebrate with a decadent spread featuring a delicious turkey as the iconic centerpiece. With food prices continuing to climb, Thanksgiving specials offer a once-a-year opportunity to find value in discounted whole turkeys.

“One way to stretch your grocery budget during the holidays is to purchase an additional whole turkey around Thanksgiving,” says Chuck Meath, vice president of retail sales for Jennie-O Turkey Store. “Leading up to the holiday, retailers often offer turkeys at the lowest prices of the year. An extra turkey can provide a family with a full week’s worth of wholesome, high-protein meal options.”

This year, Jennie-O Turkey Store is on a mission to show how easy it is to eat well and entertain on a budget with delicious turkey.
