I was in Walgreens and asked about their Halloween stuff, of course. The girl I asked said the beginning of September, and she added "yeah, we get stuff in early!" LOL... "early." I wanted to tell her about Michael's, Big Lots, Dollar Tree, and hopefully Lowe's, Rite Aid and HomeGoods soon, but I didn't.
I figured it was time for a thread anyway. Walgreens has become one of my favorite stops for Halloween stuff lately.
Once the rugrats go back to school, the orange and black will appear! Walgreens usually has a least a couple of things that are unusual or a great value every year.
I like the flow of things. Back to school clearance means getting rubbermaid containers CHEAP. I like the drawer units for storing crafting supplies and always need more storage containers for my new Halloween props and decorations that I've made.
Walgreens is my favorite spot for 'day after' shopping. I hit every single one up last year and scored some great stuff.
im here i saw halloween stuff while my mom was dropping my cousin to his aunt i went today the closest 1 and there was candy only and little space of candy the other 1 second closest there was noting i saw the halloween items at a dowtown walgreens so it seems the downtown 1s have stuff out early i wanted to go there last night but my mom had to take care of my other cousin so lets see what we find this year i hope walgreens have the talking mini hang ups cuz i seen them carrying it for three years now but last year they only hd the mummy 1s
hmmm i saw those cheap static ground breaker skeletons that i dont even know who makes them and tons of tombstones i saw glimpses of other stuff thst i forgot
Last year I got this awesome light up pumpkin. Instead of just a classic jack-o-lantern, it was a black cat! Hopefully they'll have some other cool things this year.
I too am waiting. Got a few really cool items at Walgreens last year: the 5-foot skeleton, a scary light up jack-o-lantern, those hard skulls, color-changing pumpkin lights that look really cool in a jack-o-lantern, medieval-looking necklaces.
Hey Dave, your family could then use your body as a prop I guess! I know what you mean about the heat. Were suppose to be in the 100s nearer the end of the week and I just try to stay inside in AC during the day, get things done in the early a.m. and after the sun sets. I have some Skelemingos to paint black but It's not like you can paint anything in the heat, it will dry on the brush before it gets to the prop. Bought those pink flamingos (nice size and variety BTW) from Walgreens during their summer clearance sale last year.
Nothing yet in my local Walgreen's but I did see "clearance" stickers on some of the Back to School supplies already......School starts here anywhere from the 13th to the 27th of August, so I'm guessing soon.....
**** Does anyone else get the crazy eyes when you ask retail store employee's when their business is going to start stocking Halloween props and decor?! I feel like a smacktard every time I ask an employee they give me this blank stare like I'm crazy........

I just bought several Halloween items today from BigLots. The instant I got to the register the cashier was like
You're preparing for Halloween ALREADY?
And I was like And you're NOT? Lol
i want to create a scream room but the hard part is to make the girl pop out of nowhere at the endof the hall and i dont have the space and i dont live in a good place for people to enter it
I actually asked a young girl at Burk's outlet tonight and she was like YES!!.Its coming through the back door tonight and if you come back on Friday, it should be out and you can use you discount card! Finally someone with a little spirit!
Nothing in the WG by my work as of 7:30 this morning. School doesn't start around here til after Labor Day, so I imagine the Back to School stuff will be out for a while yet - torturing children with every glimpse (or is that just my kid who freaks out???)
