Halloween is probably my favorite holiday even though it has changed so much in the, uh-hum, 40 some odd years I have been involved with it. In fact, I like Halloween so much I have a few Halloween decorations up all year round.
The best time to get these decorations? Right after Halloween at the after Halloween sales. You can find some incredible deals and bargains. Last year I hit up a few after Halloween sales and scored a fog machine for $20 that was almost $60 just a week before. Same with costumes. They are half off or more if you get them just after Halloween.
The thing is that most of the items will be picked over and gone and you simply can not be too picky in what you are looking for. A couple years ago I had no idea I would end up getting a dozen long stem black roses or a dozen long stem white roses splattered in fake blood but there they were at 70% off so…
Oh sure it is the same with other holidays. They tell you that you will get the best deals on Black Friday but if you wait until just after the Christmas holiday, the bargains are even better. Since Halloween is my favorite and some of the decorations stay up year round at my place…
Don’t be like this guy and pay full price…
Hit up the after Halloween sales and find some great prices. I am sure that will make you smile.
