9 October Aldi Finds You’ll Want to Grab Fast

Aldi really knows how to make fall shopping fun, and October might be its best month yet. The aisles are packed with cozy, pumpkin-flavored treats, festive home decor, and a few playful Halloween surprises that you’ll want to grab before they sell out. Whether you’re stocking your pantry, decorating your space, or just hunting for something that makes the season feel special, these finds are worth adding to your cart. Here are the October Aldi picks everyone’s talking about right now.

Kirkton House LED Novelty Pumpkin Candle

This pumpkin candle comes with a fun twist; it’s LED and runs on batteries, so you don’t have to worry about lighting a real flame. It even has a timer option that keeps it on for six hours, then off for eighteen, which makes it super convenient to leave on a shelf or windowsill. The design looks like a carved pumpkin but with a smooth, metallic finish that gives off a cozy glow without being too flashy. Some batches are lightly scented with pumpkin or vanilla, adding a subtle fall aroma to your space. If you see these in your local Aldi, grab one fast, as seasonal decor like this tends to disappear quickly.

Barissimo Coffees of Fall

Barissimo’s fall lineup is one of Aldi’s best seasonal drops. The brand brings out cozy blends like Pumpkin Spice, Cinnamon Hazelnut, and Apple Crisp, all roasted to bring out warm and toasty flavors perfect for chilly mornings. Fans say these coffees have a smooth finish and smell amazing when brewing, especially if you love that classic “coffee shop in autumn” vibe. The best part is how affordable they are compared to name-brand seasonal blends, making them easy to stock up on. Since they only show up once a year, it’s smart to grab a few extra bags while they’re still on shelves.

The Halloween Collection 3-Pack LED Ceramic Small Ghosts

These tiny ceramic ghosts are a Halloween favorite at Aldi. Each one lights up from within using a small LED bulb, giving off a soft, cozy glow that instantly sets the mood. Because they’re made of ceramic, they look way more expensive than they actually are, and the clean finish makes them easy to mix with any fall setup. They’re small enough to group together on a mantel or side table but still noticeable on their own. If you love decorating for spooky season, these ghosts are the kind of find that sells out before you even realize it.

Racine Danish Kringles Pumpkin Caramel Kringle

Aldi’s Kringles are a fall legend. This one features layers of buttery pastry filled with pumpkin and topped with gooey caramel icing that turns golden in the oven. It’s rich, flaky, and perfect for breakfast or dessert, especially warmed up with a cup of coffee. Since it’s sold frozen, you can keep it on hand for guests or weekend treats without worrying about it going stale. These Kringles come from Racine, Wisconsin, a city known for this exact pastry, which makes it feel like a little bakery treat right from your freezer.

Sundae Shoppe Pumpkin Ice Cream Sandwiches

Pumpkin spice fans, this one’s for you. These ice cream sandwiches layer creamy pumpkin-flavored ice cream between two soft cookie wafers, creating that perfect mix of cold, sweet, and spicy. The balance of flavor is just right, cozy pumpkin notes without being overly sweet. They’re part of Aldi’s Sundae Shoppe line, which means you can count on quality and texture. Since they only come around once a year, it’s worth grabbing a few boxes for when you’re craving a fall dessert after dinner.

Mama Cozzi’s Pizza Kitchen Halloween Pumpkin Shaped Cheese Pizza

Mama Cozzi’s pizzas are always fun, but the Halloween edition is extra cute. It’s shaped like a pumpkin with jack-o’-lantern details baked into the crust, making it the perfect themed dinner for spooky season. It’s a simple cheese pizza at its core, so it’s easy to dress up with your favorite toppings or keep it classic for movie night. Kids love the shape, but honestly, it’s fun for adults too. Since this pizza usually disappears mid-October, you’ll want to grab one early if you see it in the freezer aisle.

Specially Selected Fall Harvest Mac & Cheese

This fall-inspired mac and cheese from Aldi’s Specially Selected line takes comfort food to a new level. It blends classic creamy cheese sauce with a hint of pumpkin or butternut squash, giving it a cozy autumn twist without being too sweet. The flavor is rich and comforting, and it pairs beautifully with roasted veggies or grilled chicken. It’s an easy weeknight dinner that still feels seasonal and special. Once it’s gone for the year, it usually doesn’t come back until next fall, so stock up if you love it.

Emporium Selection Death By Garlic Black Cheddar Cheese

If you’re obsessed with garlic, you’ll want this cheese in your fridge. Emporium Selection’s Death by Garlic Black Cheddar is sharp, creamy, and packed with roasted garlic flavor that hits just right. It’s great on crackers, melted into grilled cheese, or even on top of burgers. The garlic flavor is bold but smooth, so it doesn’t overpower the cheddar. Since it’s a limited-time release, you’ll probably only spot it for a few weeks before it’s replaced by the holiday cheeses.

Millville Peanut Butter Bats Cereal

This Halloween cereal is all about nostalgia and fun mornings. The peanut butter-flavored bat shapes taste similar to Reese’s Puffs but have a crunchier texture that holds up well in milk. It’s sweet but not too heavy, which makes it perfect for both kids and adults who love themed breakfasts. The box design alone is cute enough to make you smile first thing in the morning. Like most Aldi seasonal cereals, once it’s gone, it’s gone, so you might want to snag an extra box or two while you can.
