Back in September, Aldi caused quite the stir announcing that it was launching a two-metre long, giant pig in blanket as part of its 2019 Christmas range.

Yes, I did look it up and it turns out that's nearly the size of a Queen size bed, or the height of a basketball player.

At a whopping six foot five, this impressive show-stopping side dish is basically the only thing I've been thinking about since.

And finally our prayers have been answered, because the budget supermarket has announced it's FINALLY in store today (4 December) for the grand sum of £4.99.

That's not all. From tomorrow you can also say hallou (geddit?) to Aldi's new Bacon Wrapped Halloumi as an alternative to pigs in blanket, and its Cranberry & Orange Gin Gammon Joint.

Aldi has been seriously throwing some exciting new products at us recently, including a 12 Gins Of Christmas Selection Box, a brand new pink gin and even a mac 'n' cheese burger.

Oh, and let's not forget the brand's Scorpion Chilli Pigs In Blankets, an incredibly spicy version of the beloved festive treat.

Well, that's our Crimbo sorted.
