I've ordered a turkey from them (which incidentally, I don't think £26.00 is a bad price for a turkey, i think it would cost more from Butchers), but my mum has just emailed me and said she is looking on Asda site and cannot find fresh turkeys to order from there. There's no Sainsburys near her so it has to Asda or Tesco. I can't find them either, do they not do fresh turkey for delivery?

I am wodnering wether I should order mine ealier and put it in the freezer, but I don't have a lot of room, I'm jus toworried it won't arrive.
Ok I'm waffling now grin

What I want to know is how yoy've manged to get Sainbsurys to deliver on 23rd!! Most of them are stoping on 22nd!

By saltire on Wed 03-Dec-08 16:30:55

Oh maybe it is the 22nd blush

. Ill go and check!

By saltire on Wed 03-Dec-08 16:31:52

By dizzydixies on Wed 03-Dec-08 16:34:32

you're smug and you know you are
la la la!!!

£26 for a fresh turkey do you mean?

By saltire on Wed 03-Dec-08 16:36:35

Actually Maureen is right, it is the 22nd not the 23rd. I'm confused with the dates, as ahve got the 20th,21st, and 22nd off, then working 23rd and 24th, then off for 2 days etc.

By compo on Wed 03-Dec-08 16:36:39

I've booked mine for Sunday 21st to give us time to get anything we need
Dh is getting a frozen turkey at some point
Tastes just the same and is cheaper.

By saltire on Wed 03-Dec-08 16:37:45

Yes, £26.00 for a fresh turkey. DH thinks its a lot, but I don't. I'm used to paying butchers prices, and this year there is no butcher near me (or at least not one i have seen) and I think this is cheaper

By dizzydixies on Wed 03-Dec-08 16:40:19

so what time would you like us all round for Xmas dinner then Saltire - sounds lovely grin

By Mercy on Wed 03-Dec-08 16:42:53

Does Sainsbury's deliver to different addresses?

If so you could do an online order for your mum.

By saltire on Wed 03-Dec-08 16:43:48

You can come and sit with MIL and entertain her while I go off and drink my mistakenly delivered free told to keep bottle of Morgans!

No one is telling me where Asda turkeys are though<sob> my mum wants to know

By saltire on Wed 03-Dec-08 16:45:49

Mercy - there isn't one near her,the nearest that I know of is Peebles, about 40 miles away

By dizzydixies on Wed 03-Dec-08 16:46:16

have all of a sudden remembered a prior engagement grin

I remember your MIL threads!!!

So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
