How to enjoy free Thanksgiving dinner at home this year

This year, it isn’t a question of “Where can you get a free turkey for Thanksgiving?, but “Where can you get a Thanksgiving dinner for free?”

For the seventh year, Ibotta is offering its “Thanksgiving Dinner On Us” program in an effort to feed millions of families this Thanksgiving.

Free Turkey

Let’s talk turkey first!

From Oct. 15 to Nov. 26, 2026, Ibotta users need to complete the Thanksgiving Turkey bonus in the Ibotta app to unlock 100% cash back on any brand turkey — your bird, your brand, your store.

The turkey bonus is personalized to each account, so users will need to open the Ibotta app to see how many offers are required to unlock the bonus.

Once you complete the required number of offer, the turkey offer will be available in the app within two hours.

Free Thanksgiving Sides

Starting Nov. 3, 2026, Ibotta is dropping a new side offer at 100% cash back every week.

Supplies are limited, so you need to act fast. Check the app every Tuesday morning to reveal that week’s offer.

Each drop is only available while supplies last, so get to the store quickly and don’t forget to add the offer to your account before you shop.

IMPORTANT: Always scan the product barcode in-store via the Ibotta app to ensure you’re purchasing the correct qualifying item.

Mark your calendar for the following Tuesdays:

November 3
