Just in time for Thanksgiving — and to support service members and their families looking to cut costs as the country emerges from the record 43-day government shutdown — Defense Commissary Agency (DeCA) stores worldwide are lowering the prices on select frozen turkeys until Dec. 1.

The new prices are:
• All stateside stores (including Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and Guam):
– Shady Brook Farms and Honeysuckle (10–28 pounds): 49 cents per pound

• Europe, Japan, and Korea:
– Shady Brook Farms and Honeysuckle (10–28 pounds): 79 cents per pound

• Worldwide:
– Butterball (10 pounds and up): 97 cents per pound
– Jennie-O (16–24 pounds): 79 cents per pound

There are no limits or minimum purchase requirements, and the discount is applied at checkout. Prices are valid for a limited time, while supplies last.
