Aldi Just Dropped The Return Date For Its Holiday Advent Calendars

Aldi is known for its wonderful and fabulously affordable calendars. But as many people have learned the hard way, once they’re sold, the Advent calendars are not coming back until next year.

Knowing how time-sensitive the calendars’ arrival is, when will they hit stores? You need to know or you risk being left empty-handed. This year’s date confirms the general impression that holiday retail periods are getting earlier and earlier, as Halloween candy and decorations were prominently displayed by the end of the summer, and the trend shows no signs of letting up (per Insider Intelligence). But unless you’re Tim Burton, you can’t really have Halloween and Christmas side by side (Via Entertainment Weekly).

It seems that Aldi will drop its Advent calendars on Wednesday, November 2, according to an @aldiusa Instagram post. The caption reads “We couldn’t keep the secret – our holiday calendars return November 2nd!” In addition to the aforementioned cheese and hard seltzer varieties, you’ll also find the Aldi wine Advent calendar in stores again. We can’t blame you if you’re thinking what one commenter stated, “BEST TIME OF THE YEAR.”
