The Cost of Thanksgiving 

North Texas shoppers are braving the grocery store with a list in hand the day before Thanksgiving for some last-minute items.

‘We do have plenty of turkeys available still," Kroger Director of Corporate Affairs John Votava said on Wednesday. "They may not be the right size, but we have some that are fully cooked already, and you just have to warm them up."

Thanksgiving dinner 2024: How much you can save using store-brand products

Choosing store-brand items for Thanksgiving could save consumers around $17, according to a Wells Fargo report, as food inflation continues to impact holiday costs.

"The prices are slightly lower, significantly lower this year on Thanksgiving food prices, in my opinion," said shopper Theresa Griffin.

According to the American Farm Bureau Federation’s annual report released last Wednesday, the cost of creating a Thanksgiving feast is down.

The survey found that a classic, festive dinner for 10 people will cost on average about $58, which is a 5% decrease from last year.

With that said, the current cost for a dinner with 10 people is still 19% higher than it was five years ago

Grocery chains like Kroger are using their buying power to help lower the cost for consumers.

"For the third straight year, prices are down for a typical Thanksgiving meal at your local Kroger stores," Votava said.

Customers are appreciative — especially when they're responsible for feeding the entire family.
