The holiday season brings a lot to look forward to. Cookies, cocktails and other festive comestibles are just the food-centric beginning of a long list. Also high on that list is Aldi’s array of Advent calendars, offering a broad range of delightful treats and surprises to those who enjoy opening little windows, one at a time, day by seasonal day.
Since the supermarket chain first brought its cult-favorite line of Advent calendars to the United States in 2018, the collection has become a holiday-season staple, returning and expanding each year. The 2023 collection is now rolling out — the first batch dropped on November 1, and more will arrive on November 29 and December 6 — and it includes returning favorites and exciting new items with which to count down the days.
This year’s returning offerings include the Barissimo Coffee Advent Calendar ($13.99), Bay Island Hot Sauce Advent Calendar ($14.99), Beer Advent Calendar ($49.99), Choceur 24-Day Advent Calendar ($8.99), Choceur Kids Advent Calendar ($1.49), Emporium Selection Advent Cheese Calendar ($16.99) and Holiday Magic Wine Advent Calendar ($59.99), as well as calendars featuring candles, toys and dog and cat products.

New food-related countdown calendars for 2023 include Wicked Grove 12 Days of Cider ($19.99), featuring 12 “fun flavors” of “wicked good” hard cider, including Juicy Pear, Caramel Apple and Berry Ginger, as well as Sparking Magic Sparkling Wine Variety Pack ($29.99), a gift-ready box containing six 200 ml bottles of sparkling wine.
Also new this year are the 12 Days of Irish Cream Calendar ($29.99), Holiday Magic 5 Days of Sweet Red Wine ($19.99) and Holiday Magic 5 Days of Dry Red Wine ($19.99).
New non-food calendars will let you tick off the days with non-edible treats ranging from puzzles to different kinds of slime. Aldi is even offering an Advent Calendar in the form of a garland you hang on your mantle — Merry Moments Advent Calendar Garland ($12.99) — complete with little stockings you open to find a treat. (Adorable.)
And note that, while Advent doesn’t officially start until Sunday, December 3, these calendars are popular, limited-time-only, while-supplies-last items and tend to sell out quickly. So if you want to snag one and celebrate the season with a variety of coffees or hot sauces, wines or cheeses, grab your cart quarter and get a move on.
