It is still more than 4 years ago, no matter how you shop.
Yep.
"Historically" is soy boy talk and its a lie.

Dude... it's a box of chemicals, not stuffing/dressing. I mean, this is great for obese people in a trailer park but this is not a Thanksgiving feast item.
I get that. I wouldn't eat that shite either my friend. As a matter of fact I am from the south, I do not eat stuffing at all....but that is the price for stuffing.
I will guarantee any of you that this is a fact. I can post this same thread under a different heading...."Single Mom Complains About Cost of Thanksgiving Dinner" and the same people fussing about it costing them more than $5 a head to feed their family thanksgiving dinner would be all about it being possible for less than $5 a head for that complaining single mom to do. In reality it is indeed possible to do what would pass, by any definition, the criteria for thanksgiving dinner, for less than $5 a head for 10 people. It is not what I would want but it is possible. And there is nothing wrong with it if it is what you can afford....lots of people will be eating it.

Could you even feed 4 people for $58? Saying 10 is laughable. The turkey itself is nearly that ha!
Someone may be trying to pull a fast one on you with the price of a turkey

Don’t they know that Trump won. They can stop with the things are good so you should vote Democrat articles.

Well it doesn't so kind of a pointless metric to compare with.

10 servings. Yes, if you are trying to feed a bunch of fat asses your mileage may vary....

My wife decided we needed an organic turkey($65), “because you don’t know where the others come from.”

Naive by actually doing the math as it is postedon Walmart.com? You are a fricking stupid son of a bitch, ain't you? How am I naive, Walmart is going to con me or bait and switch me your fricking idiot? That is what those groceries will cost someone today....there is no way that the person would be naive you fricking moronic bastard,....

You can't even get 10 frozen Thanksgiving "TV Dinners" for that cheap. This is full of shite. You can't walk out of a fast food restaurant feeding 4 people that cheaply.

The same meal, eaten at a restaurant, would also come out of a can and out of boxes and would cost way more.
You need to do a better job of picking restaurants to eat at if the ones you’re going to are serving you meals from a box

Instant potatoes, and canned turkey. Maybe a can of cranberry and a koolaid pack

Your math sucks.
Youre not feeding 10 people on that.

First mistake is nobody gets a 10 serving turkey to serve 10 people. It doesn't.

Nothing tells your family you're thankful for them quite like plopping down a bunch of Great Value slop on the table.
Enjoy your tablespoon of GV potato flakes kiddos

Correct. A small can of green beans says it serves 3.5 people.
