American shoppers are feeling the squeeze as food prices surge amid an affordability crisis—but one of the country’s fastest-growing discount grocery chains is meeting the consumer halfway this holiday season.
Lidl US is offering its first-ever holiday meal deal that serves 12 people for less than $4 per person. The shopping list includes a ham portion priced at $0.77 per pound, 12 ounces of Hawaiian rolls at $1.79, and 7.25 ounces of mac and cheese for $0.56, as well as many other food items like sweet potatoes and ingredients to make a pumpkin pie. The deal runs through Dec. 24, according to the company’s press release.
