Huntington Home Rustic Carved Wood Candle
Price: $19.99
Nothing says "rustic, cozy cottage" like carved wood in an acorn shape that holds 32 ounces of scented wax punctuated with several wicks. The acorn is scented like tobacco leaf and oak but has an oblong shape that smells like spiced cinnamon and pumpkin.
Huntington Home 14oz Candle
Price: $4.49
Aldi regularly offers seasonal scented candles at an excellent price. This season, their new scents are cyclamen flowers and lemon leaf, sunflower fields, smoked caramel praline, and Honeycrisp and persimmon.
Unfortunately, the new seasonal candles have been downgraded to two wicks, which is disappointing to loyal shoppers who prefer the three-wicked models that were standard up until this past spring.
The reduced number of wicks leaves the wax susceptible to "tunneling," which leaves a wall of wax around the flame that never seems to melt.
SOHL Furniture XL Couch Table
Price: $24.99
If you missed the couch-side table the first time, we have great news — it's back! Its C-shape design allows the legs to slide under the couch and bring the table's surface all the way to your lap.
Aldi doesn't always have furniture, but when it does, it tends to fly off the shelves — so don't wait to grab one.
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.
Huntington Home Book Storage Box
Price: $9.99
Who doesn't want a fake book with a secret hidden compartment? So grab yours at Aldi this week. You can even choose between three base colors for the "cover."
Pro-tip: To hide secret trinkets, be sure to use a boring book that nobody would be tempted to peruse for reading material.
Bottom line
If you love candles, Aldi has the best quality for price comparison. The downgrade in the standard number of wicks has disappointed loyal shoppers, but the larger, seasonal decorative candle available this week has no shortage of wicks and should provide a smooth, even burn.
Despite one less wick, the smaller candles are still the best value for your dollar. Many stores have raised prices outrageously over the past few years, but Aldi is a notable exception. It has continued to strive for both quality and affordability so customers can keep saving money on essentials every week.
