Iceland issues deadline for anyone wanting a frozen turkey in time for Christmas

Iceland is freezing the prices of its own-brand frozen turkeys for Christmas this year, to help keep costs lower for those struggling amid the cost of living crisis. It comes as ongoing issues with supply chains and the outbreak of avian influenza has led to a 32 percent increase in the prices at some supermarkets.

The frozen food retailer has pledged to not pass the same price increases onto its customers whilst also guaranteeing shoppers will be able to obtain a great value festive centrepiece with the return of its popular Turkey Insurance.

To guarantee a Christmas turkey, customers will need to create an Iceland account on www.Iceland.co.uk by Friday, November 18 and look out for an email with all the details on how to secure their turkey and delivery slot up until December 18.

Richard Walker, Managing Director at Iceland Foods said: “As a cost of living initiative to support our customers ahead of Christmas we’ve been working hard for months to ensure that everyone can buy their Christmas dinner at a low price.

“Recent news has suggested there’s been price increases on frozen turkeys as the outbreak of avian flu takes hold; we will be freezing our prices and will do so until Christmas.”

“We also want to reassure our customers with the re-launch of our popular Turkey Insurance, which guarantees a delivery slot along with the promise of a turkey this year.”

Those opting to get their turkey early to keep in their freezers will be able to s hop the full turkey and Christmas centrepiece range from Monday, November 14, with prices starting from £10.

To guarantee a turkey in time for Christmas customers must register for an Iceland account online and ensure their marketing preferences are turned on to receive emails to ensure they receive their Turkey Insurance information.
