Thanksgiving Dinner *Should* Cost You Less Than $5 A Person

According to the American Farm Bureau Federation’s annual report, a Thanksgiving meal for 10 should cost about $48.91 this year, which makes it less than five bucks a person

The most expensive item will be the turkey at $1.30 a pound, or $20.80 for a 16-pound bird

This price also includes sides like veggies, rolls, stuffing and sweet potatoes, as well as pie
