Thanksgiving is all about gratitude, family, and that delicious feast we look forward to all year. As the holiday approaches, the excitement builds, but so does the cost of the big meal.

Thankfully, BJ's Wholesale Club is here to help you make this Thanksgiving both memorable and budget-friendly!


BJ's Wholesale Club, known for its generous deals and bulk savings, is once again delighting its members with an annual promotion that's too good to pass up—a free Butterball turkey.

This year, they've extended the offer, giving you more time to plan and secure your holiday centerpiece.


Here's your step-by-step guide to claiming your free Thanksgiving turkey from BJ's before they're all gobbled up:


Step 1: Mark Your Calendar
The promotion runs from November 1st to November 14th, 2024.

That's 13 days of opportunity to meet the qualifying purchase amount, which is a step up from last year's eight-day window.

Step 2: Plan Your Shopping
To be eligible for a free turkey, you need to spend a minimum of $150 in a single transaction. This can be done either in-club or online at BJs.com.

Consider stocking up on other holiday essentials or everyday items to reach the threshold.

Step 3: Access Your Coupon
On November 16th, the free turkey coupon will become available.

You can easily clip it using BJ's mobile app or by logging into your account on the BJ's website. Make sure your membership details are up-to-date to avoid any hiccups.


Step 4: Redeem Your Turkey
You can redeem your coupon for a fresh or frozen Butterball turkey up until November 27th.

Keep in mind that the coupon has a maximum value of $25 and does not apply to organic turkeys.

It's also subject to availability, so don't wait until the last minute.

Step 5: Enjoy the Savings
With your free turkey secured, you can focus on perfecting your stuffing recipe or trying out that new cranberry sauce everyone's been talking about.


The savings from BJ's allows you to allocate your budget to other areas of your holiday meal or perhaps even a special treat for yourself.

David Rajkovich, senior vice president of GMM Perishables at BJ's Wholesale Club, emphasizes the joy that their free turkey promotion brings to members' Thanksgiving traditions.

By extending the qualifying period, BJ's aims to make the shopping experience more convenient and stress-free.

Remember, BJ's will be closed on Thanksgiving Day to give their employees a well-deserved break.

But don't worry, they'll reopen on Black Friday, November 29th, with doorbuster deals that continue through December 2nd.

BJ's isn't the only retailer offering Thanksgiving deals.

Target has announced a return of its Thanksgiving meal for four at $20, and ALDI offers a holiday meal serving up to ten people for less than $50.

As you prepare for your Thanksgiving celebration, consider taking advantage of BJ's generous offer.

Not only will you have a delicious turkey to share with loved ones, but you'll also have the satisfaction of smart shopping that keeps your budget in check.

Remember, these free turkeys are while supplies last, so plan your shopping trip accordingly.

Happy Thanksgiving, and happy savings from all of us here at The GrayVine!
