The typical American spends 128 minutes cooking their Thanksgiving feast, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. That’s a little over two hours of time that could be better spent with loved ones, rather than being confined to the kitchen.
For those looking to streamline Thanksgiving Day, Zippy’s offers party platters and Thanksgiving packages.
Whether you’re contributing to a potluck or simply need some extra fixings to complete an extravagant spread, the party platters, encompassing a range of entrées and sides, are the perfect addition to any dinner table.
Here, we spoke with marketing director Jeanine Mamiya Kalahiki, who provided her expertise on Zippy’s holiday offerings.

JMK: Yes, there is still time to order online and save! Nov. 12 is the last day to save up to $20 if you order online. After that, you would need to call 808- 973-0880 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Mondays-Fridays or go to the store to order at the regular price.
We want to stress the importance of ordering online by Nov. 12 to save up to $20 because after that the Turkey packages will be at regular price.
We already sold out of Whole Turkey only, but you can still get Whole Turkey Packages and Half Turkey Packages. Both the Whole and Half Turkey packages include real mashed potatoes, stuffing, poultry gravy, cranberry pineapple relish, and King’s Hawaiian dinner rolls. Hurry before those sell out, too!
