In October, Walmart announced its Thanksgiving meal offer, featuring a 10- to 16-pound turkey that serves eight for less than $7 per person.

Black Friday through Cyber Monday sales attracted approximately 197 million shoppers this year, coming in slightly lower than 2023’s record-breaking 200.4 million, according to a report released Tuesday by the National Retail Federation.
