ROELAND PARK, Kan. — Grocery stores are expecting to see lots of last-minute shoppers as families get ready to gather for Thanksgiving.
Price Choppers around Kansas City have been gearing up for this week.
"We are expecting to see a lot of our friends and families shopping," said Chief Marketing Officer Casie Broker.
While many are finding their last few items, many are still keeping the cost of Thanksgiving in mind.
The American Farm Bureau said the average cost of a Thanksgiving meal to feed up to 10 people will be $58.80 this year, nearly $5 lower than last year.

"We worked really hard all year round to prepare for this week," Broker said. "Really to try to keep cost down for Kansas City. So you'll find turkey on sale, sweet potatoes."
With turkey prices down this year, Price Chopper is offering turkeys for $0.88 per pound.
Price Chopper in Roeland Park will be open for half of the day on Thanksgiving Day.
