Aldi's newest batch of Aldi Finds lands Wednesday, Sept. 30, and it leans hard into Halloween. The retailer's upcoming week is packed with seasonal home goods, so it's easy to decorate several rooms without spending much.
Standouts include a plush throw for scary movie nights, pumpkin-shaped silicone baking pans, and novelty slippers for cozy evenings at home.
Before you go, brush up on these Aldi shopping hacks to stretch your budget even further.

Get a protection plan on all your appliances
Did you know if your air conditioner stops working, your homeowner’s insurance won’t cover it? Same with plumbing, electrical issues, appliances, and more.
Whether or not you’re a new homeowner, a home warranty from Choice Home Warranty could pick up the slack where insurance falls short and protect you against surprise expenses. If a covered system in your home breaks, you can call their hotline 24/7 to get it repaired.
For a limited time, you can get your first month free with a Single Payment home warranty plan.
The Halloween Collection Halloween Window Stickers
Price: $1.99
Window clings are the easiest way to make your house look festive from the street. Aldi has five designs: Boo Pumpkin, Cat With Pumpkin, Ghosts With Bats, Skeleton, and Trick or Treat.
They're a smart pick for renters or anyone who doesn't want to haul a ladder out for outdoor decor. Stick a set on the front door glass or a kitchen window, and you're done in minutes.
At $1.99 a sheet, you could buy all five designs for less than $10 and spread them across every window facing the street. It's a cheap way to make the house look finished for trick-or-treaters.
The Halloween Collection Halloween Ice Cube Molds
Price: $2.99
Party drinks get an instant upgrade with this assortment. Choose a pumpkin, large skull, or tombstone ice mold, or grab reusable glass cubes in a pumpkin-and-ghost or skull 4-pack.
There's also a 2-pack of mini Boo tongs and a 3-pack of straw toppers. Each option costs $2.99, so you can mix a few for a Halloween punch bowl without blowing your party budget.
The large molds are the better pick for a punch bowl, since one big pumpkin or skull cube melts more slowly than a tray of small ones. The glass cubes chill a drink without watering it down, which makes them a nice touch for cider.
The Halloween Collection Halloween Kitchen Towels 2-Pack
Price: $3.99
Swapping your dish towels is one of the cheapest ways to give a kitchen a seasonal refresh. This 2-pack comes in four designs: Spell, Happy Halloween, Hey Boo, and Skeletons.
The value is hard to beat. Target's Hyde and EEK! Boutique Halloween Pumpkin Terry Kitchen Towel sells for $3 for a single towel. Aldi's 2-pack works out to about $2 a towel.
Hang one towel on the oven handle and keep the second in a drawer for wash day. With four designs, you could also rotate a fresh look each week of October for less than $16 total. They also make an easy add-on gift for a hostess.
Kirkton House Vinyl Tablecloth
Price: $3.99
If you're hosting a costume party or a pumpkin-carving night, a wipeable vinyl tablecloth saves your table from glitter, glue, and pumpkin guts. Kirkton House offers pumpkin, skeleton, spiderweb, and witch designs.
It comes in 52-by-70-inch and 60-by-84-inch rectangles, plus a 70-inch round in the skeleton and witch prints. Every size costs $3.99, so measure your table before you head to the store.
Vinyl is also a good fit for outdoor gatherings, since spills wipe right off. If your party spills onto the patio or into the garage, two of these cover a pair of folding tables for less than $8.
The Halloween Collection Halloween Mug
Price: $3.99
A new mug is a small treat you'll reach for every morning through October. Aldi's Halloween mugs come in four designs: Cat, Ghost, Skeleton Hands, and Skeletons.
They're priced below similar picks at Target, where Hyde and EEK! Boutique Halloween mugs sell for $5. Grab one for yourself and a few more to fill with candy for coworkers, neighbors, or teachers.
Fill a mug with candy, a packet of cocoa, and a short note, and you've got a thoughtful gift for less than $5. Buy four for a set of teacher or neighbor gifts, and you'll still spend less than $16.
The Halloween Collection Halloween Crochet Set
Price: $4.99
Crafters can get a jump on handmade decor with these Halloween crochet sets. Choose a ghost scene, a classic pumpkin, a stacked pumpkin, or a spider design.
A kit like this makes a relaxing weeknight project, and the finished piece doubles as decor you can bring out every fall. It's also a budget-friendly gift for a friend who's been wanting to pick up a new hobby.
Handmade pumpkins and ghosts also make a sweet addition to a tiered tray or bookshelf, and they won't break if a pet or grandchild knocks them over. Set aside an evening or two, pour a cup of cider, and you could have a new piece of decor ready before Halloween.
The Halloween Collection Plush Throw
Price: $4.99
This might be the best value in the whole drop. The 50-by-60-inch plush throw comes in six prints: Haunted House, Jack-O-Lanterns, Orange Ghost, Pumpkin Checker, Pumpkin Heads, and Spiderwebs.
For comparison, Target's Hyde and EEK! Boutique Halloween Throw Blanket is the same 50-by-60-inch size and sells for $10. That means you could buy two of Aldi's throws for the price of one, which is handy if everyone wants their own on movie night.
Keep one on the couch and another in a guest room, or fold one into a boo basket for a friend. It's an affordable way to warm up a room as the nights get cooler.
The Halloween Collection Halloween Drinking Glass
Price: $4.99
Pour your party punch into a glass that fits the theme. Aldi's Halloween drinking glasses come in a black ghost, an iridescent cat, and a white candy corn design.
The same three designs also come as a cup with a lid for $4.99. That version is a smarter pick if you have little ones or plan to sip on the porch while handing out candy.
Set out a few on a drink station with the ice molds above, and your party will look planned down to the last detail. Three glasses cost less than $15, so you can cover a small get-together without buying a full set.
Women's Halloween Novelty Slippers
Price: $6.99
Keep your feet warm on chilly October nights with a pair of novelty Halloween slippers. Choose Beige Pumpkin, Grey Bat, or Pink Ghost.
Aldi lists them in sizes 7/8 and 9/10, so check the fit in store if you wear a half size. Kids' versions in the same three styles cost $4.99, which makes matching family slippers an easy win.
They'd also make a fun small gift for a friend who loves the holiday. Tuck a pair into a boo basket with a Halloween mug and some candy, and you've got a cozy care package. Just grab your size early on release day.

Kirkton House Halloween Comfort Mat
Price: $6.99
If you spend a lot of time at the stove or sink, a cushioned mat makes the season's baking marathons easier on your feet. Kirkton House's Halloween comfort mats come in four designs: Boo, Ghosts & Bats, Pumpkin Trio, and Sweet Halloween.
It pairs nicely with the kitchen towels above. Buy both, and you'll have a coordinated Halloween kitchen for less than $11.
A mat is also practical in front of the sink, where it can catch drips while you wash pumpkin bowls and baking pans. Roll it up in November, and it'll be ready to come back out next fall.
Crofton Silicone Baking Pans
Price: $6.99
Halloween baking gets more fun with Crofton's shaped silicone pans. Aldi offers five designs, including a pumpkin, a neon skull, a black speckled spider, a black-and-white cat and bat, and a purple house.
Use them for cakes, brownies, or molded treats for a class party. If you plan to bake a lot this season, Crofton Halloween baking gadgets are also hitting shelves for $4.99.
Silicone flexes, so shaped cakes pop out more easily, and the pans store flat in a drawer. For a school party, bake a few batches ahead of time and freeze them until you're ready to decorate. Pair them with the Halloween mugs for a cozy bake-and-cocoa afternoon.
Kirkton House Halloween Icon Candle
Price: $7.99
Shaped candles are an easy way to add a spooky touch without committing to big decor. Kirkton House's Halloween icon candles come in six designs: Black Boo, Black Ghost, Pink Moon, Purple Snake, White Candy Corn, and White Pumpkin.
Line a few along a mantel or tuck one into a tiered tray for an easy display. The pink moon and white pumpkin designs work well if you prefer a softer, less scary look.
They also make a nice hostess gift if you're heading to a Halloween party this year. Mix a black design with a white one for a more modern look on a console table or entryway shelf.
The Halloween Collection Halloween Basket
Price: $7.99
A good basket earns its keep long after Halloween. This one comes in bat, ghost, or pumpkin designs, so it works as a candy bowl for trick-or-treaters on the porch.
Between visitors, it can corral throw blankets, craft supplies, or costume accessories. It's also a fun base for a boo basket, the tradition of leaving a basket of treats on a neighbor's doorstep.
When the season ends, it can hold toys, pet supplies, or extra pillows, so it doesn't have to go straight into storage. Buy one for the porch and one for the living room, and you'll still spend less than $16.
Bottom line
Aldi's Halloween Finds are one of the cheapest ways to decorate your whole home for the season, from the kitchen to the couch. Aldi Finds are limited-time items, and once your store sells out, you can't order more online.
Check the Upcoming Aldi Finds page each week to plan your trip, and shop early on release day for the best selection. If you're stocking up for the season, pay with one of the best cash back credit cards to earn a little back on every purchase.
