Get your hands on the popular ALDI Christmas tree before they sell out!

Members, if you're on the lookout for a reasonably-priced and decent-looking Christmas tree this year, we've got some great news for you – ALDI's crowd-favourite $99 Winchester Christmas tree is back on sale very soon!



This pre-lit tree was such a big hit with shoppers when it was first released a few years ago (it sold out in stores across the country within days!) that ALDI has brought it back again for this year – and we have a feeling it's going to be just as popular this time around.

What makes this particular Christmas tree so special? Well, for starters, it only costs $99. That price point is very affordable compared to other trees on the market these days, which can set you back hundreds of dollars.

It also comes already lit up with 800 twinkling lights in either warm white or multi colours, and there are eight light functions to choose from so you can create the perfect ambience in your home this holiday season.

Plus, at 213cm tall and with more than 1000 pine needle tips, it looks very full and lush – definitely not like one of those scraggly trees that seem to be all too common these days!



The best part about The Winchester? Once Christmas is over and done with (and let's face it - we could all do without having to deal with tangled-up strings of lights), taking it down is super easy, thanks to its collapsible design.

You simply take off all the decorations, unscrew the three main sections of the trunk using the included tool (which takes less than 60 seconds), and then fold them away until next year. So simple!

If you're keen to get your hands on one of these trees before they sell out (and trust us - they WILL sell out), head into your nearest ALDI store from Friday, November 4th, when they go on sale as part of the store's Special Buys range.

But be quick – at that price point, they're bound to fly off shelves fast!



For those trying to cut costs throughout the holiday season, artificial Christmas trees are a great option. Although plastic isn't the most eco-friendly material, artificial trees made of it can serve you well for many years.

However, we can't deny that real Christmas trees are much better for the environment than their plastic counterparts, and they also don't require storage space after the holidays.

When it comes to real Christmas trees, they are grown only for the purpose of being harvested and sold in the weeks leading up to the holiday. But during a tree's lifetime, it takes in all that carbon dioxide and gives off oxygen (unlike plastic ones).

The trees don't have much of an effect on the environment as long as they are used as mulch instead of going to a landfill. They're biodegradable, after all, and their materials can be reused and recycled.
Tip
The most common way to reuse a natural Christmas tree is to turn it into mulch. All of the tree's pieces and parts are good for gardens!


Where can I buy a real Christmas tree?

Tree farms all over the country are the best places to get a real Christmas tree. It's also worthwhile to check with your local Bunnings to see if it would permit community organisations to raise profits this year by selling Christmas trees or seasonal treats on-site. Also, some grocery stores and shopping centres sell trees during the holiday season, so keep an eye out the next time you go!
Key Takeaways

  • ALDI shoppers are eagerly awaiting the supermarket giant's popular Christmas tree to finally hit the shelves this year.
  • The popular $99 tree quickly sold out when it was released a few years ago.
  • Though they're better for the planet than their plastic counterparts, real Christmas trees are more expensive in the long run because they can't be reused the following year.
So what do you think, folks? Do you plan on picking up a Winchester Christmas tree from ALDI this season, or are you thinking about getting a real tree to decorate? Feel free to share your thoughts and opinions here!

There is a farm in America that sells Christmas trees and refunds part of the money when you take them back and they replant them to sell next year. That got a well done from me.

Aldi’s Christmas trees always go fast, so it’s smart to grab one while you can. Last year, we missed out and ended up scrambling to find a good tree. We ended up getting one from https://www.twentyfifth.co.uk – Artificial Christmas Trees. Honestly, it turned out better than expected. The tree looked really full and held up well through all the decorating chaos. It even survived my toddler trying to “rearrange” the ornaments daily. If you can’t snag the Aldi one, this site’s worth a look. It saved us when we were in a pinch last year.
