Definition and sources
  • How it's averaged: each advertised price is weighted by the number of stores USDA reports running it. That store count is summed across qualifying ads, so a store running two qualifying ads may count twice.
  • USDA label: “APPLES” / “HONEYCRISP”.
  • Data week: ads for the week of October 17, 2026, published by USDA on October 23, 2026. USDA publishes these weekly, on Fridays; this site checks for new reports every 30 minutes.
  • Coverage: USDA-reported store count 371. History since 2014.
  • BLS comparison: we don’t show a closely matching BLS average-price series for this item.
  • Sources: USDA AMS “Weekly Grocery Store Specialty Crops Feature Activity” (report 3324). How we check the data.
