To think I'll be able to get a sodding turkey?

Doing the second half of the big Xmas shop tomorrow morning. DH is convinced turkey will be sold out everywhere and there'll be none to be found. I think there'll be plenty and he's being a paranoid knob (also, it's a turkey, big fucking deal). Who is right?

Sending DH on a mission to get parsnips tomorrow. He went today and came back with 3 tiny ones.

Well I'll definitely be fitching the turkey and buying a couple of fucks Grin

Me and fellow veggie are probably having Linda McCartney's pies because they are lush. Normally we just have quorn escalopes or something. Anything to avoid the dreaded nut roast!

I think you'll be fine, OP. There were loads of turkeys in Sainsbury's today.

However, I didn't find any fucks Xmas Grin

Also I love that Fitch was the typo you picked up on zzzz!

There is clearly no smoked salmon left in the whole UK

You should be fine. Last year I was in waitrose Christmas Eve afternoon and at 3pm they started reducing them to half price.

NewLife4Me · 23/12/2015 20:36

My Morrisons had everything today, I was there at 10am just before the buses came into town with the old people. So was quiet too.
Ds went this afternoon and it was heaving.

Sallyhasleftthebuilding · 23/12/2015 20:37

Alway loads half price christmas eve.
And the shops will be empty. Always have a nice stroll round!!

Was in M&s food hall earlier, loads of turkeys there.

I wonder if Waitrose will order less this year as I also saw them being dramatically slashed in price last Christmas Eve afternoon!

Fluffyears · 23/12/2015 20:43

Just back from sainsburys/M&s plenty of turkeys but not much else.

MooseBeTimeForSnow · 23/12/2015 20:44

No Norks I prefer my fucks with plum sauce

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 23/12/2015 20:48

Limited Grin

Loved that movie.

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 23/12/2015 20:50

DH is picking up The Most Expensive Turkey In London tomorrow morning from the butchers (honestly, it's ridiculous). I am going to ask him to check if they have any fucks left too.

LovelyFriend · 23/12/2015 20:51

Just don't buy a frozen one. It will take too long to defrost Grin

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 23/12/2015 20:58

Frozen Fucks are next to the clotted cream ice cream in our Sainsbos.

Thissameearth · 23/12/2015 21:01

Just back from marks - I was not buying turkey but I made a mental note that were loooads of turkeys left

notquitehuman · 23/12/2015 21:02

Lidl had smoked salmon. We nabbed the last packet of big prawns though, sorry.

Plenty of turkeys everywhere. Whole turkeys, crowns, giant breasts Xmas Grin, and those three bird thingies.

TheFuckitBuckit · 23/12/2015 21:05

Have done Tesco, Morrisons, Asda and Aldi today all had turkey a plenty. Heard a few grumbles about smoked salmon though.

MamaMary · 23/12/2015 21:09

Asda had no cranberries this afternoon.

Had to go to Tescos for them.

Tamponlady · 23/12/2015 21:11

Couldn't get hold of sage today and they were nearly out of hams also you may be able to get a turkey but not the choice you would like best to go early dh got goose last week

Ho early ypu don't want to be eating turkey slices lol

ginagslovechild · 23/12/2015 21:13

My mum always leaves buying the turkey to an hour before asda shuts then gets it half price. There are always lots of turkeys!!
