Costco is offering shoppers a way to simplify Thanksgiving dinner this year with a new $199.99 holiday meal package.
The retail giant said the online offering only serves eight people and includes turkey, traditional sides and dessert.
The bundle is currently marked down from $269.99, with a $70 manufacturer’s discount available through Nov. 30 while supplies last, according to Costco’s website.
Meals can be about $25 per person and include a 5-pound turkey breast, several prepared side dishes, dinner rolls and two desserts.

The turkey is already brined and ready to roast, and many of the prepared sides require only heat or minimal preparation, according to Costco.
The warehouse giant says the package is meant to simplify vacation planning for families.
“We’ve made Thanksgiving easier for you and your family with this bundle,” the retailer said.
The bundles are available exclusively online and are shipped frozen via FedEx with second-day delivery, according to Costco.
Shoppers can preorder the meal until November 13, with delivery scheduled between November 4 and November 20.
Other major retailers have announced their own holiday deals, including Walmart, which recently announced a $35 holiday meal basket that can feed 10 people, or about $3.50 per person.
