Shoppers were astonished when they spotted a turkey for sale in Morrisons for £136 – more expensive than a FLIGHT to the country.

The organic bronze British bird – big enough to feed eight to 12 people – was in the supermarket’s ‘Best’ range.

The label said it had been “free to forage in open pastures” and was “naturally slower growing for a fuller flavour and succulent texture”.

The 6.83kg main course was the most expensive turkey on sale at the Morrisons in Sheldon, Birmingham, last night, a shopper said.

The shopper who spotted it said there was also one for sale for around £116.

The £136.60p price tag was more expensive than a FLIGHT from Birmingham to Turkey, coming in at £104 on December 29.

One shopper who spotted it said: “I couldn’t believe it when I saw the price tag.

“I know food prices have rocketed, but that seems like an awful lot to pay for a turkey.”

Shoppers earlier this week were surprised by the cost of the same product at a Morrisons in Tavistock, Devon.

Morrisons reportedly originally said the £140.60 price tag sticker was a mistake – but then said it wasn’t.

A spokesperson said: “This turkey is the most premium organic product available in our offering and the price of £20 a kilo is in line with the market price.

“A similar sized turkey, Morrisons British large whole turkey, is available to buy for £4.99 per kg, costing around £31.44.”

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
