BATAVIA, Ill. (WAND) — Discount grocer Aldi is offering its lowest-priced Thanksgiving basket in five years — a full meal for 10 priced at $47.
Aldi said the price-point of $4.70 per person cuts out the "sales, coupons, minimum purchase requirements, loyalty cards and other hoops required to save at traditional grocers."
“Every day at ALDI, we are focused on finding ways to deliver the lowest possible prices for our customers – and this Thanksgiving is no different,” said Jason Hart, CEO, ALDI. “With 25% of U.S households now shopping ALDI, we know grocery prices are still top of mind for customers. We worked hard this Thanksgiving to deliver the best value and quality products so everyone can enjoy a traditional meal with family and friends without having to scale back.”
The Thanksgiving basket includes a Butterball turkey with spices, gravy, rolls, mac & cheese, stuffing – plus the ingredients for cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes, sweet potato casserole, green bean casserole and pumpkin pie.
Aldi is positioning itself as the country's leading discount grocer, with plans to open 800 stores over the next five years.
