Offers, prices, and local participation may vary.

Get a free Thanksgiving turkey with purchase at the grocery store.

This year, you can grab a free turkey at most major grocery stores, although the requirements to get the free turkey will vary among stores. For example, you may have to be a rewards/loyalty member or spend a specific amount in a single transaction or over a period of weeks.

Some stores offer fresh or frozen brand-name turkey, like Butterball or Jenni-O, while others offer only store brand. You may even find stores that offer different options, like a ham, for those who don't want a turkey. The limit is often one turkey per person or account, but this too may vary.

To figure out how much these deals can save you, we need to do some quick math. The average turkey weighs 13 - 15 pounds. Standard Butterballs cost around $2 - $3 per pound. That makes your average Thanksgiving bird cost $26 - $45 each. However, a few weeks before Thanksgiving, some stores like Walmart drop the price to $1 per pound, Target to $0.49, and Kroger to $0.59. So a free turkey probably saves you $15 - $30.
