Milwaukee Area Pumpkin Price Comparison List
From pumpkin patches to big box discount retailers like Walmart, there are so many places where you can buy pumpkins in the Milwaukee area. Prices for pumpkins are just as diverse! Pumpkins from large retailers are typically cheaper than those from pumpkin farms. Of course buying your pumpkin at Aldi doesn’t offer the same experience as buying it at a pumpkin patch. What kind of pumpkin buyer are you? Does the experience of a pumpkin patch justify the higher cost?
Here’s a list of prices we’ve seen at popular pumpkin patches and big-name retailers around town (note that prices may change and may vary from store to store within the same chain):
Aldi - $2.49 each
Apple Holler (Sturtevant) - $0.49 per pound
Basse’s Country Delight (Muskego) - Individually priced $1-$8 each
The Elegant Farmer - Priced by size, extra large pumpkins $12; large pumpkins $8; medium pumpkins $5
The Family Farm (Grafton) - $0.37 per pound
Pick ‘n Save - Large pumpkins $4.99; medium pumpkins $3.99; small pumpkins $2.99; mini-pumpkins 10 for $10
Prospect Hill (New Berlin) - $0.37 per pound
Sam’s Club - Jumbo pumpkins for $8.98
Swan’s Pumpkin Farm (Franksville) - $0.26 per pound
Steins - Three pumpkins for $10
Walgreens - Two large pumpkins for $7
Walmart - Large pumpkins for $2.49
You can also get some great deals on pumpkins from farmers that set up pumpkin stands on the side of the road. One of our Facebook followers, Peggy, shared a great deal that she found:
“I bought pumpkins out of a wagon cart on the corner of Good Hope and Town Hall Road. They are $2 each. Good deal and great pumpkins.”

Walmart to Add Thousands of Products to Stores
Walmart recently announced they are adding approximately 8,500 more products to their stores and kicking off a new ad campaign. Walmart has seen sales decline at their U.S. stores and appear to be taking these steps to reinvigorate their sales.
New items will be identified by “It’s Back” flags on store shelves. Walmart states that adding dry grocery products like pasta and beverages are in progress and over the next year new products will be added in the following areas:
- Fresh grocery
- Consumables, such as paper towels, toilet paper, and laundry detergent
- Health and wellness products
- Electronics
- Sporting goods
- Apparel
- Fabric/crafts
- Outdoor living
Walmart has also updated their ad match policy and now claims that it is the most competitive in the marketplace. Their goal is to make Walmart a one-stop shop for consumers looking to avoid shopping several stores in order to save money. Their ad match policy states that they will match the price of any local competitor’s printed ad for an identical product. The policy does not apply to Walmart.com.
With the launch of a national television advertising campaign, chances are you’ll see these messages on a t.v. commercial soon.
Do these changes make it more likely for you to shop at Walmart now or to spend more money when you go there?
