This holiday season, Target is offering a $25 Christmas dinner to inflation-weary households following the success of its low-price Thanksgiving sale. A 6lb ham, 5lb of russet potatoes, French bread, mushroom soup, green beans, and some Favorite Day Peppermint Sandwich Cookies were all included in the meal, which was supposed to feed a family of four. Shoppers have from now until December 25 to make use of the offer. Last month, the store was offering a complete Thanksgiving meal for the same price. Target's chief food and beverage officer, Rick Gomez, is outraged. Such arrangements, according to the company, are a 'combination of value and delight that set us apart.' We saw this again over Thanksgiving, so we're building on the success by giving even more of what they love.'

A turkey at less than $1 a pound is included in the dish, as well as all the trimmings at a price that will not stretch the budget. It comes with enough for four people, with a 10lb frozen turkey, 5lb russet potatoes, 12oz Heinz turkey gravy, 14.5oz of green beans, and 6oz Stove Top turkey stuffing mix. The $25 package also includes 14.5oz green beans, 14oz Ocean Spray cranberry sauce, and 22oz Campbell's cream of mushroom soup. Our guests are expecting extraordinary value and convenience as they prepare to celebrate Thanksgiving with their families,' says Rick Gomez, Target's chief food and beverage officer.'

Target is investing $5 billion on its stores around the country as part of a strategy to keep them open and profitable. The Minneapolis company said the funds could be used to expand services for visitors and invest in digital facilities.
