    Hi smallpackages,

    Assuming you are buying a fresh turkey crown, I would leave it until Tuesday or Wednesday if you can. Although ask your butcher or check the use by date on the packaging if buying it from a supermarket to see if you can buy it any earlier. I hope your parents feel better soon.
