How Much Does Thanksgiving Dinner Cost

Wonder how the average Thanksgiving meal costs? From the Wisconsin Farm Bureau

While strong demand for turkey and other items will increase the cost of a traditional Thanksgiving dinner for Wisconsin shoppers, its cost is still a better deal than a trip through the drive-thru.  

That’s the finding of Wisconsin Farm Bureau’s annual Thanksgiving price survey of traditional items like turkey, stuffing, cranberries and pumpkin pie for a family of 10. This year’s average price of $50.17 marked an increase of $4.91 (10.8 percent) over last year.  

When that total is divided by 10, it shows that the cost to prepare a nutritious, home-cooked Thanksgiving meal is $5.02.
