Do you really think a supermarket has an endless supply of advertised products?
Yes, they do have a supply, but at this time of the year, we are "talking turkey" specifically.

Also, no one says you have to buy an unadvertised turkey at regular price either.
Offering a sale on an item and running out before noon is hardly an endless supply. It's a tactic to get you in the door. As I said before, but it's bait and switch tactic that works. You end up buying a lower price item with a higher profit margin. And while you're there you most likely end up buying other items to go with your holiday dinner.
