Buying a frozen turkey in CSL


Our friends will be flying into CSL for a few days then driving up the penninsula to spend Thanksgiving with us. They will want to buy a frozen turkey in CSL. I am thinking Costco may be a good bet for one but wanted to ask those down there if there may be a few other options??
Thanks.

Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.

Tell them not to buy pavo ahumado unless you want smoked turkey. Several of my friends have made that mistake.
