Thanksgiving Dinner Costs: Turkeys and Inflation Bring Relief
TL;DR
The cost of a Thanksgiving dinner for 10 people has dropped by 4.5% this year, according to a survey by the American Farm Bureau Federation. The decrease is attributed to lower prices for turkeys, the most expensive item on the menu, which have fallen by 5.6% from last year. Promotions and a reduction in avian bird flu cases have contributed to the lower prices. However, overall food prices have risen by 3.3% compared to last year, reflecting the impact of inflation.
