Who's Got the Best Prices for Thanksgiving Dinner?

Patch compared advertisements for Moorpark stores.

Updated to include additional stores.

If you're a frugal shopper, you're probably in the habit of scouring the weekly advertisements from the area's grocery stores and know who's got what on sale, how it compares to last week's prices and how it compares from store to store.

But if grocery shopping isn't your favorite activity and you just want a general idea of who's got the best prices on popular Thanksgiving items and ingredients, Patch can help.

We've looked at this week's advertisements and prices online and compared prices on turkey and the fixin's. Unless a brand name is noted, we've compared the least expensive of each item for each store.

Also, if you're not the cooking type, but still want to enjoy a traditional Thanksgiving meal at home, watch for Sunday's article on where to buy one!
