What this number means: the average advertised sale price in grocery-store weekly ads across the Southeast, not the price at any one store, and not the everyday shelf price. Boneless chicken thighs, boneless, skinless, fresh, per lb; ads for the week of October 26, 2026.

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 labels: “THIGHS, BONELESS/SKINLESS” / “THIGHS, BONELESS/SKINLESS, REGULAR PACK” / “THIGHS, BONELESS/SKINLESS, VALUE PACK”.
  • Data week: ads for the week of October 26, 2026, published by USDA on October 30, 2026. USDA publishes these weekly, on Fridays; this site checks for new reports every 30 minutes.
  • Coverage: USDA-reported store count 51. History since 2014.
  • Possible comparability break: ad prices shifted about 8% up around USDA's September 2024 reporting redesign. We observed the shift; its cause and exact size can't be isolated.
  • BLS comparison: we don’t show a closely matching BLS average-price series for this item.
  • Sources: USDA AMS “Weekly Grocery Store Chicken Feature Activity” (report 2756). How we check the data.
