Each year since 1986, the American Farm Bureau estimates how much Thanksgiving dinner will cost for a family of 10. The Bureau tracks the prices of holiday favorites such as turkey, dinner rolls, sweet potatoes, and more.
This year, each member of the Indicator team went to their local supermarket to buy items from the Bureau's list to see how much prices have changed from last year.
Today on the show, we gathered around the virtual Thanksgiving table to share what we found with help from economist Veronica Nigh. We call it, "Indicatorsgiving."
