    That looks pretty reasonable, for a whole turkey and pie fixings. Good on them to make Thanksgiving more accessible and affordable.

      That turkey is one that was deceased and has no legs. Sometimes the legs 🍗 are removed and discarded, sometimes only one leg is infected and therefore the other leg is amputated and sold separately in pairs or in bulk to carnivals or other events where turkeys legs are sold.

      This basically is a breast only turkey and most likely 55% of the budget.

      The rest is can and processed garbage usually nobody actually buys, except for the 3-4 dollar bag of potatoes.

      It’s a PR stunt. Walmart pays starvation wages and has more employees on government food assistance than any other company in America.

        To expand on that, if you aren’t purchasing from Walmart, you’re effectively losing money every day. Not only are they bankrupting you through government subsidies funneling your money to them, they’re hurting people to do it.
