Thanksgiving is so much more than the interlude between Halloween and Christmas: It’s a chance to sit down with family and friends, savor a good meal and enjoy quality time together. However, with food prices rising, you might worry about your wallet getting starved as you prepare your Thanksgiving feast. Luckily, as a Target shopper, you can rest assured that you’ll find some sweet deals — even on the savory items.

Target

Good & Gather Premium Basted Young Turkey

  • Price: $12.64

Let’s be real: Your odds of getting a plump Thanksgiving turkey weighing between 10 and 16 pounds for less than $20 are pretty slim. Yet that’s exactly what you’ll find with this frozen turkey from the renowned Good & Gather brand. It already comes packed with excellent flavor worth gobbling about — marinated with turkey broth, salt, sugar and other seasonings. There’s even a gravy packet to make meal prep easier

Target

Stove Top Stuffing Mix for Turkey

  • Price: $1.89 

Nobody’s going to know you didn’t make the stuffing yourself — that’s how good Stove Top is. Why go through the hassle of buying your own ingredients and wearing yourself out over the stove? This 6-ounce box from Target serves six people in one sitting, and at under $2 a box, you can feed a large gathering at a low cost. 

Target

Banza Gluten Free Chickpea Shells and Vegan Cheddar

  • Price: $3.59 

Odds are high that someone at your gathering will have a gluten sensitivity, so why not be prepared with a protein-packed addition to your Thanksgiving table? If you’re heading to a Friendsgiving celebration hosted by your vegan pals — and you have no idea how to cook vegan food — this spin on mac and cheese will be a crowd-pleaser for everyone, including your wallet. 

Target

Good & Gather Fresh Russet Potatoes, 5 Pounds

  • Price: $2.59 

The potato is a versatile vegetable — perfect for frying, mashing and baking. All these options will be a hit with your Thanksgiving guests, and you can give yourself plenty of flexibility with a 5-pound bag of potatoes for less than $5. Find yourself with leftovers? Just pop them in the microwave with some butter and you’ve got a cheap, easy snack. 

Target

Ocean Spray Jellied Cranberry Sauce

  • Price: $1.99 

Sure, turkey may be the main attraction of Thanksgiving (they do call it Turkey Day), and stuffing and sweet potatoes are popular too. But Thanksgiving just isn’t Thanksgiving without cranberry sauce — and Ocean Spray is well-known for making some of the sweetest, freshest cranberry sauce around. Grab it at this low price, and make sure you have plenty left over for Christmas.
