THE holidays are officially here which means so are the Aldi new advent calendars.
The wait is over as the first batch of holiday calendars just hit stores today and this year, they are worth the wait.
There wasn’t a huge line when I pulled up when the store opened at 9am, but once I got inside, folks were definitely circling them as employers were still putting the calendars on display.
At my Aldi in Santa Ana, California, all of the calendars were spread out in sections: a kid's section, an adult section, and an alcohol section.
As I was looking through them a helpful employee who was putting more out said to me, "Which one are you looking for? These all go so quickly."
She escorted me to the other places where I got my hands on the Holiday Magic Wine Advent Calendar and the Huntington Home Candle Advent Calendar.

These were massive boxes and such a great deal.

Plus, on the box and on each glass of wine there is a feature where once you scan the barcode, it tells you about each wine in a little video.
It also has suggestions on what foods to pair them and what part of the world its made in.
Some of these specialty wines can go for $16 or more alone and I got 24 of them for $60.
So if you're looking to try some new wines, you could save well over $300 just by purchasing this.
Huntington home candle advent calendar
As a candle fan, once I saw these I knew I had to buy them.
The packaging itself is so Christmasy with a beautiful picture of wreaths and snowy windows all wrapped up in a nice red bow.
This advent calendar comes with 25 miniature candles and costs just $40.
Some of my favorite scents are the hot toddy, caramel & ginger cookie, and winter wishes.
This makes for a perfect holiday gift or even a great purchase for yourself to get ready for the holidays.
The price is just right also, as some of these are around $3 to $6 a candle, which would add up to nearly $75 - and that's on the low end.
However, if you buy the calendar, you get 25 for only $40.
