The Great Turkey Fetch

Thanksgiving is next week and Marn and I need turkeys.  We've been spending the last week talking about menu ideas; I've been drooling over the new PW fall line; we are on the lookout for zip lock bags big enough to brine large Turkeys; and getting inspired by thanksgiving specials on the food network.  And that's just the fun stuff.

So yesterday we gathered our lists, well I gathered my lists, Marnie has it all up in her head.  I have no idea how she pulls that off, but pull it off she does, every dang time.  And we grabbed our cooler bags and headed across the boarder to buy cheap Turkey.

Here's the thing, I had no idea how cheap.  It turns out Costco in Bellingham is offering fresh turkeys for 99 cents a pound.  Fresh...99 cents... It was AWESOME! (That's $1.30 Canadian, for fresh turkey. And free shopping trip with Marn, fabulous!)

So with turkeys in hand we perused everything else the american shopping experience had to offer.

Eight of those milk monstrosities later, plus enough butter, cheese and bacon to make Thanksgiving a truly marvelous event, we headed to the checkout.  Bellingham Costco can be a very dangerous place.

P.S. I had to blur some of the cart's contents because of little prying eyes.  There may or may not be an impulse Christmas buy in that cart.
