Whole Foods Roll Out Holiday Turkey Deal For Amazon Prime Members

Austin-based grocery chain Whole Foods Market--which is now part of Amazon--said on Wednesday that it will offer up special holiday discounts on grocery items for Amazon Prime Members, as Amazon continues to work on integrating Whole Foods into its empire. According to Whole Foods, it will offer up special discounts on organic and no antibiotic turkeys for Prime Members for the holiday season, along with lower overall prices on a number or products from Whole Foods' in-house 365 Everyday Value brand. The turkey deal makes turkeys available at $2.99 a pound for organic and $1.99 a pound for "no antibiotic" turkeys for Prime Members, a steep discount from the $3.49 a pound price for organic turkeys, and $2.49 a pound for "no antibiotic" turkeys it will offer to non-members. Amazon says the discount is a preview of the in-store benefits it plans to offer Prime members, when it makes Amazon Prime the official rewards program of Whole Foods Market.
