Kroger is keeping holiday meals hearty and affordable with the return of its Freshgiving bundle just in time for Thanksgiving. Starting November 12, shoppers can pick up a complete 16-item meal that serves 10 people for under $4.75 per person.
The bundle includes a 14 to 16-pound frozen turkey along with a full spread of holiday essentials. Items include Kroger-brand stuffing, chicken broth, sweet corn, baby carrots, cranberry sauce, yams, Idaho potatoes, green beans, cream of mushroom soup, fried onions, ready-to-bake rolls, pumpkin puree, and whipped topping. Campbell’s Turkey Gravy rounds out the package.
Kroger’s deal aims to help families save money as inflation continues to affect food prices. With the U.S. turkey population at its lowest in nearly 40 years due to bird flu and other respiratory diseases, securing a holiday bird at a reasonable price is no small feat.
Other major retailers are stepping up, too. Walmart offers a 10-person meal for $40 with over 20 items, including a 13.5 lb. Butterball turkey. Target is serving up a $20 bundle for four people, and Amazon has a five-person dinner for $25 packed with premade sides like green bean casserole and mashed potatoes.
