    First sighting of Halloween

    With the demise of Party City, Joann, and Big Lots I'm a little bummed about the prospects for Halloween decorations this year. I was at Dollar Tree getting some poster board on Wednesday, and came across their first offerings. I'll be haunting them more often now. You all know I have a thing for ceramic trees, this one came home with me. $5

    Never too early for Halloween stuff. I always look forward to the first Monster cereals sightings.
    You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

      My daughter sent me pics of a new skeleton treat pail at a nearby Walmart. Does my soul good to know Halloween is coming!

        I just found out Big Lots came back and there are three under twenty miles from me. I should probably buy a lotto ticket.

          One of the thrifts I go to has some Fall/Halloween type stuff out on the sales floor. (Some Winter/Christmas stuff too, though that's probably for the 'Christmas in July' shoppers...)

            I actually saw some Halloween stuff at Wal Mart the other day. I have accidentally turned into a Halloween blow mold collector and try to add one every year. Huge yes to the monster cereals too!

                  Just take a stroll in a Cracker Barrel and you'll see all types of Halloween stuff. I was in one probably at the first of July and a witches broom was following me around in the shop in the front, kind of like a roomba.
