My local Aldi doesn't seem to have any of these £6.99 crowns
the freezer was full of geese, and a few of the specially selected
joints though, The manager says they are getting some fresh crowns in
on Thursday guess these will cost more though

we've got eight of us for lunch and nine in the evening and boxing day and I've bought a stuffed turkey crown, a gammon and a pork joint all from aldi but didnt have the turkey crown at my local one - hopefully that will be enough for lunch, tea and cold cuts for boxing day - if not they are all having porridge

finally perfected my goose fat potatoes on sunday (I've put on a stone in the process but they are fantastic and worth it!)

Thanks for the info on the crowns peeps, i saw one in tescos and considered it. I hadnt though of just buying the crown before, and that price is much better than tesco's turkeys! Thanks all.

Well i went to Aldi yesterday to get another of these lovely £6.99 frozen turkey Crowns and they didn't have any! They also said they were getting the fresh ones in on Thursday....now i have a turkey problem...do i buy a frozen whole Turkey or wait for the fresh Turkey crowns?

I read somewhere yesterday (possibly on the Christmas forum) that someone bought 25lb turkeys for £5 each last year in Sainsburys on Christmas Eve - question is, can I really face Sainsburys on Christmas Eve :eek:

How long do fresh turkey's last?, if i buy a fresh Aldi crown tomorrow
will it still be ok to eat on Christmas day?

Not sure how long they will last...i'm going in to check tomorrow.

Just been to Aldi, the fresh crowns range from about £8-£13
and the use by date is the 27th

I decide to buy a Bernard M frozen full Turkey in the end that serves 8-10 people. It was the last one from my local Aldi and it cost me £8.99
