One supermarket has slashed turkeys by 75pc but were there any left at closing time on Christmas Eve?

There's two types of people at Christmas. Those who like to do all the shopping weeks and months in advance, and those who leave things until the last minute.

I have been both in my life but am now firmly in the first category, however I do sympathise with those in the latter - life often gets in the way after all. The thought of leaving the turkey of all things until this late in the day fills me with dread but if you are one of those people who are perhaps less prepared for the big day then it can actually work out in your favour, with supermarkets slashing prices on turkeys before closing for Christmas.

However, predictably, some are completely sold out. So to try and save you a disappointing Christmas trip, I visited all of the big supermarkets this Christmas Eve to see what sort of deals you can get.
