Walmart is cutting holiday grocery costs with an aggressive seasonal rollout, offering a complete holiday spread for under four dollars a plate: the retail giant officially announced its 2026 Holiday Meal Basket, designed to serve 10 dinner guests for a total of $35, which breaks down to just $3.50 per person. Available at domestic supercenters and online through December 24, 2026, the curated bundle features 26 items across 17 distinct pantry and fresh products. The package delivers 18 percent more food items than last year's holiday assortment, directly targeting price-conscious families contending with persistent food inflation.
Butterball Turkey And Classic Sides Anchor The Twenty Six Item Basket
The centerpiece of the meal basket is an all-natural frozen Butterball whole turkey (10 to 16 pounds), locked in at a rollback rate of $0.97 per pound—one of the lowest national poultry prices of the season. Alongside the bird, the package supplies all necessary scratch-cooking and quick-prep ingredients for a full traditional holiday feast:
- Two boxes of Stove Top stuffing mix
- A five-pound bag of fresh Russet potatoes
- Two packets of Great Value brown gravy mix
- Three cans of cut green beans
- Campbell's condensed cream of mushroom soup
- French fried onions
- Three cans of golden sweet kernel corn
- A 12-count pack of brown-and-serve rolls
- Fresh sweet potatoes paired with Jet-Puffed mini marshmallows for sweet potato casserole
- Two boxes of Jiffy corn muffin mix for corn casserole
- Fresh cranberries
- Canned pure pumpkin
- Evaporated milk
- Frozen pie crusts
- Frozen whipped topping.
No Membership Required With Free Express Delivery Options
Walmart highlighted that 96 percent of the items in the holiday basket feature rollback discounts, combining private-label Great Value essentials with five prominent national brands. Unlike bulk warehouse clubs, Walmart requires no paid subscription memberships to access the pricing, and shoppers face no purchase quantity caps when buying full baskets or individual meal components.
Customers can purchase the meal basket in stores, choose curbside pickup, or schedule home delivery through the Walmart app. To sweeten the savings ahead of peak holiday travel, Walmart is also offering free Express Delivery on the holiday basket through November 30, 2026, for orders utilizing the digital promo code THANKFUL.
