American shoppers benefit from a record turkey supply with an estimated 1.27 billion pounds ready for the final quarter, up from 1.25 billion last year, while per person consumption may stay near 18 pounds. Retailers use turkeys as loss leaders to attract buyers who also purchase cranberries and pies, as some farmers face overproduction and low prices.
