What this number means: the average advertised sale price in grocery-store weekly ads across the US, not the price at any one store, and not the everyday shelf price. Chicken wings, party wings (flats and drums), fresh, per lb; ads for the week of October 19, 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 label: “PARTY WINGS, FLATS AND DRUMS”.
- Data week: ads for the week of October 19, 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 755, 8 of 8 regions. History since 2024.
- 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.
