6 Grocery Store Thanksgiving Meal Deals To Feed More People For Less

Listen, we all know groceries are more expensive than ever right now. The average American family is spending $50 to $100 more on groceries per week this year than in 2025, which makes a food-focused holiday like Thanksgiving feel more daunting than ever, if your budget is already tight. So while the Instagram-worthy six-cheese macaronis and truffled mashed potatoes sure look tasty, how many of us can really spend that much to make one side? If you’re stressed about Thanksgiving costs this year, here are some of the best Thanksgiving meal deals of 2026 to help you stay on (or under!) budget and still get to enjoy feeding your family their Turkey Day favorites.

Aldi

If you like the sound of spending $39 to feed 10 people, you need only swing through Aldi. Each year the grocery chain publishes a shopping list that helps customers maximize how many people they can feed for as little as possible, while still enjoying all their favorite seasonal dishes. This year’s list includes a 16-lb. whole turkey, stuffing ingredients, dinner rolls, and more.

Costco

This meal deal isn’t as easy on the budget, but it comes almost completely ready-made (you still have to roast the bird) and is steeply discounted compared to its usual price. Costco members who order the Complete Gourmet Thanksgiving Turkey Dinner will save $70 this year; it’s discounted from $269.99 to $199.99. The meal feeds eight adults, which works out to about $25 per person.

So, what’s included? The meal comes with...

• 5 lbs. turkey breast
• 3 lbs. tray of mashed potatoes
• 24 oz. turkey gravy
