It’s that time of year again to stock up on pumpkin spice cereal and apple cider,  but those aren’t the only fall items you’ll find gracing the shelves at Aldi, the discount supermarket chain with more than 2,400 stores across the country. The supermarket operator is also known for its Aldi Finds, an array of assorted goods that are popular with hardcore shoppers looking for unique buys beyond food.

After all, who doesn’t want to go grocery shopping and also pick up a sweater for their pet or an inflatable skeleton for their front lawn this Halloween?

Aldi Finds are cheap, roll out on Wednesdays and are available while supplies last. There’s something for everyone, including these 10 items for fall.

1. Metallic pumpkin candle
