Full Fledged Farker
Just picked up a couple of whole birds at $.48 a pound. I may need an intervention because last year I bought 7 total birds and my kids threatened to leave if I ever made turkey pizza again..
The turkeys are the loss leaders for the stores. I worked 6 years in a meat dept and those sales prices were losing money. Sell them for 39 cents lb and they cost 69 cents lb. They want you to buy all the other crap for the dinner.
Back in the day (1986 - 1992) you had to price those farkers by hand. Calculator in one hand and a sharpie in the other and write the price on the bird.
Man I hated November.
