Shop & Save for Halloween!

Savvy Maura Hoff has an amazing tip this month that will help you save time and money this Halloween . . .

We’ve all been so overwhelmed with the back-to-school season, that Halloween feels like it is creeping up on us!  So if you live near a Goodwill or perhaps a Salvation Army location, my recommendation is to head over ASAP.  The beginning of September is when they put out their Halloween Costumes.  I picked up some great costumes just last week, including a Disney Frozen Anna costume for $9.99 and a knight’s cloak, as well as a beautiful black cauldron to decorate the house with. I’ll use some of the items immediately and save a few to give as fun gifts during Christmas.  The best costumes go quickly, so don’t wait – go NOW!

  1. Gosh… too bad it’s already October. All I see now are generic, limp (really, the fabrics they use are limp, even for princess skirts), ready-made costumes.
