Aldi Offers a Full Thanksgiving Meal for $40

Aldi says it’s setting the bar for other grocers by feeding 10 at $4 a person so hosts can keep every tradition (and every guest) on the list.

For years, Aldi says it has offered the lowest per-person price on a Thanksgiving meal compared to nationwide retailers.

This year, the grocer continues that tradition by offering a Thanksgiving feast for prices even lower than last year’s, according to a news release. For just $40, shoppers can build a full spread for 10 with the Thanksgiving favorites they love — including the turkey and ingredients for nine crowd-pleasing sides.

“The Aldi commitment to low prices is unwavering, and I am thrilled that we are able to offer an even more affordable holiday meal than last year,” says Atty McGrath, CEO for Aldi U.S. “Saving our shoppers money is our mission every day — but is especially important during the holidays when they need it most.”

For $4 per person, less than a pumpkin spice latte, Aldi says shoppers can purchase all the items needed to fill their tables. This includes 21 total products and ingredients to dish out a 14-pound turkey, rolls, cranberry sauce, mac and cheese, stuffing, mashed potatoes with gravy, sweet potato casserole, green bean casserole and pumpkin pie. Items that are part of the meal are purchased individually and marked on the shelf. No coupons or memberships needed, the grocer says.

According to Aldi, the savings couldn’t come at a better time. Recent consumer price reports show staples like fruits, vegetables and meats are more expensive than last year, contributing to higher grocery prices overall. Lowering its already low prices for the Thanksgiving season is just one more way Aldi helps shoppers save, the company says. In fact, the grocer says a family of four can save up to $4,000 a year when they shop Aldi, from everyday meals to holiday spreads.

“Thanksgiving is the biggest food holiday of the year, and Aldi is proud to lead the industry once again on price,” says Scott Patton chief commercial office for Aldi U.S. “Price leadership is part of our DNA, and the holidays are when our commitment to value really shines. We believe families shouldn’t have to make trade-offs to feed everyone, especially at Thanksgiving.”

Shoppers can build their Aldi Thanksgiving feast by heading to their local Aldi store, ordering online for curbside pickup or placing an order through grocery delivery partners including Instacart, Uber Eats and DoorDash, beginning Oct. 15 through Dec. 24.
