Thread: First Halloween sighting in stores...

Tweet

Wow that dollar tree stuff looks awesome, Ill have to stop by there tomorrow and see if they have anything.

Just dropped into Cracker Barrel and they have their Halloween out.

Some very nice decor items, even some glam ladies' costume accessories, but the overall pricing seems to have gone up compared to past years.


Several Walgreens in my area (Houston TX) have put out a small section of HALLOWEEN CANDY.

I just got home with my "Scaretaker" prop and yes, it came with an audio CD. Its the same track over and over again, but its a nice little added bonus!

I had to run over to the closest Home Goods store and see if they had him, and sure enough, it's the first thing you see when you walk in. I really wanted to see it in action, but it didn't work. Is that all it does is shake, and the latern lights up?

Yes, his mouth shakes, the mouth on the head in his left hand shakes, latern lights up and like I said before, it has an audio cd with him talking and background sounds, (i.e. dogs barking, wolves howling, etc.). Well worth every penny to me.

WOW I started something here...lol Everyone is on the hunt now.....
Re: Spirit in the Night....All he does is shake, his mouth and the head in his hand mouth are both on springs and the lantern is battery operated it lights up...Mine also came with the CD...I took it apart torso and bottom to fit it in my friends car...would NEVER make it in mine...LOL
Re: Nox & Prestonjjrtr....Glad ya got him!
Re: A witch from cananda...I do feel REALLY lucky now man...I finally got a good score! WOOWHOO When I saw the Dept. 56 suggested retail price tag of $995.00 I was like "yea Ok.." Then there was another tag like $258 or something under the $129 sticker... Well ya know besides for myself, we do it up for the kids too so maybe something or someone was looking out for me with this deal somehow ya know... yyyeeeaaa!!!!

I wish everyone on here could get one or finds one!

I saw the Dept. 56 tag on there too with that $900 suggested retail price...lol. It also has a "Seasons USA, Inc." (out of Sauquoit, NY) tag on it. Here is the link to Concept Marketing who apparently markets Seasons USA products CONCEPT MARKETING ASIA LTD. The Nightview Creations section is the props section.

Boy who doesn't have a bunch of their products! Thanks for the link.

Unfortunately my Home Goods trip wasn't as productive as I had hoped. First Home Goods store didn't have the large props yet, but did have quite a lot really nice decor out (bought a few things as mentioned earlier today). We also stopped by two more stores (a TJMaxx and a TJMaxx/Home Goods) and I was really disappointed they didn't have anything Halloween out at all. I'll post pics from my successful trip since no one else seems to have done so yet.

Here's some pics from Home Goods today. No big items as mentioned earlier today but still lots of nice decor.
