What this number means: the average advertised sale price in grocery-store weekly ads across the Northeast, not the price at any one store, and not the everyday shelf price. Strawberries, 1 lb package, per 1 lb pack; ads for the week of October 17, 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: “STRAWBERRIES”.
- 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 778. 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.
