Does Walmart Have Black Friday Turkey Deals?
Learn what Walmart's $35 turkey basket includes and how to get it around Black Friday week.
Yes, Walmart has a turkey deal that covers Black Friday. The deal is Walmart's $35 Holiday Meal Basket, a set of groceries meant to serve 10 people. The basket centers on turkey with stuffing, sides and pumpkin pie ingredients.
Walmart Corporate lists the price at $35, or $3.50 per person, in Walmart's holiday meal announcement. It is sold in stores and online through Dec. 24, 2026, so it spans Thanksgiving and Black Friday, according to the same Walmart announcement.

What is in the $35 basket?
The basket is a holiday grocery bundle, not a single turkey price cut. Walmart Corporate describes it as turkey plus stuffing, sides and ingredients for pumpkin pie. The set is sized for 10 servings.
That works out to $3.50 per person at the stated $35 total. Shoppers buy the items together as a listed basket. The contents can vary by store if a listed item needs a substitution.
Can you buy it during Black Friday week?
Yes. The basket stays available before, during and after Black Friday week because sales run through Dec. 24, 2026.
Thanksgiving Day store timing matters for pickup plans. Walmart stores are closed Nov. 26, 2026, and in-store Black Friday sales start at 6 a.m.
local time Nov. 27, while online sales continue, as reported by Men's Journal in its store-holiday-hours report. Plan online orders around that closure.
A Thanksgiving Day store trip will not work, but online access continues.
How is the turkey priced?
The centerpiece is a 10- to 16-pound Butterball frozen whole turkey at $0.97 per pound. Walmart lists that price as unchanged from 2025 in the shoppable Thanksgiving value-meal list. Walmart reaches the $35 basket total using a 13.5-pound average turkey.
The calculation also uses 3.2 pounds of sweet potatoes at $0.88 per pound. A larger or smaller turkey changes what one shopper pays at checkout. The per-pound turkey price stays the same, but total weight drives the receipt.
What limits should shoppers expect?
The $35 figure does not apply everywhere. It excludes Alaska, Hawaii, Oklahoma, Puerto Rico and Wisconsin. Tax is extra.
Pickup or delivery fees range from $0 to $19.95, depending on method and location.
- Check local availability before planning a Black Friday pickup.
- Compare pickup and delivery fees for the basket.
- Allow for substitutions, which can raise the total.
- Save room for thawing a 10- to 16-pound frozen turkey.
