My life is filled with countless moments when I truly could not fathom the price for something that was staring me down at the POS.
Forget those, they are in retrospect acceptable, maybe even natural and normal and not even worth mentioning. I'll get to my point in a minute.
For over 30 years we've bought the TG Bird at Raymond's turkey farm in Methuen. Wonderful Product. Clean beyond belief. Great flavor, etc. Always gladly paid the premium. I remember noting as a kinda wow moment, when the bird first hit twenty bucks. And of course, it has continued upward ever since. But . . .
Picked up a fabulous 21 pounder on Tuesday and was stripped clean of $5.50 a pound. You figure it out. Over a C note for a f'n turkey. Text me your shrink's phone number if he's a miracle worker.
PS. Best damn bird ever.
Cheers
