I bought the ground turkey on wed for dinner and used only half. I wrapped it up in seran wrap but still in its original container. It is friday now and I was wondering if it is still safe to use for tonights dinner.

What does the use by date say on the packaging?
It should be ok, but if the grocery sold you meat on the last day it could be sold you might second guess it.
And btw the number of days it'll be good depends on the temperature you store it at. It isn't a magic 3, 5, or 7 day number.
If it has been cooked it would generally be considered safe for 7 days if it is held at 41 or below, 5 days if it is 42 to 45 degrees, anything above that and you'd risk listeria contamination rather quickly.

It's good for three days, unfrozen. May want to re-wrap after partial use next time.
