Haven't personally seen anything yet, but it's that time of year where we let each other know what's going on.

I just got in touch with B&M Bargains Stores to ask when their stock was due in, and got this short reply - "Hi, our Halloween stock is due in end of September"

Quite a wait yet

And yet they're getting Xmas stuff in in September according to their website! Yes, Christmas stock has details on their site, but Halloween doesnt!

Oh there's a surprise.

I'm hoping that Wilkinson's and Asda will have a few choice pieces.

Just contacted TK Maxx too!

Here is their response:
"Hi Cat, we sure will have Halloween product around mid September. You will find spooky statues, masks, dress-up and much more. Watch this space!"

So September once again is looking like the earliest we will see any goodies.

TX Maxx and B&M Bargains are usually my top 2 stores for Halloween goodies. Besides Poundland for smaller bargains! ooh maybe I should contact Poundland too!

I always find TK Maxx to be so bloody expensive really. The one local to me sometimes has some nice stuff, be the prices can be outrageous.

I love the pound shop though as It can be great to use as a basis for makes.

Here's what I found in my local branch of TK Maxx today...

A tiny amount by American standards.

I like the skeleton man on top of the pumpkin.

**Silver Spike** · 08-20-2011,12:57 AM

Yes, he's rather cute isn't he. I also really like the glass pumpkins (they also came in silver by the way) and the skull/crow globes that when you jiggled them had tiny glitter bats flying around inside.

Ooh I'll have to check out tk maxx. What are their prices like?

**Silver Spike** · 08-20-2011,01:36 AM

The average price seemed to be around the £8-£10 mark for most of the medium to small items. The glass pumpkins were £7.99 as were the skull globes I think.
