Hallorenecene, seems like we have the same taste in Halloween items. I think I got everything that you got from Walgreens at 75% off too. I got the large hanging ghoul, and a smaller version as well, the spider victim, hanging bat, 2 different ground breakers (reaper and mummy) and that jester mask (which I just loved!) and lots of smaller items. I also picked up some of the tombstones, small ones were less than $1 and the larger ones were like $1.25, not a bad deal at all!

In Louisville KY :
Targets are 75% off including candy.
Wal Marts were 75% off but not much left.
Walgreens have been 75% off since Sunday so probably most is gone.
Several of our Krogers marked down what they had left to less than .50 cents per item. Mostly it is just ceramic dishes, and other home decor, nothing too big. All other Krogers were 60% off as of yesterday.

Our closest Spirit store was over an hour away so we didn't make the drive for half off deals but I can't complain about what I got at Walgreens! Hopefully we will have a closer Spirit next year, we had one right in Louisville in 07 and 08 so not sure why they didnt come back.

I found two good tombstones at Wal-Mart yesterday. They were $3.50 each marked down from $14.50. Pretty good bargain if you ask me.

They are the type that have the little light in them but I'm going to remove the lights next year. They will get plenty of light from the flood lights I put up and I'll be able to use them for something else.... probably light up the eyes of one of my many skulls.

Go to Lowes and check out the garden area....I was in there today and they had crosses that are normally about $15 on clearance for $3. They have a base and can stand on there own. Also, in their Christmas lights, they've knocked a few bucks off some of there extension cords

Man you guys got some good deals. Most everything around here is gone, however there wasn't too much to start with. I surprisingly found several really good deals at CVS pharmacy and also went to target and got two ground foggers for 8.99 a piece regular 39.99. I may have to check out Walgreens and see if there is anything left. Anyone check Home depot yet?

my daughter paid me back the money she owed me so i went to target yesterday, finally 75% off. here is what i purchased
some outside orange solar lights, a dutchess vampiress bust with led eyes, a bubble maker, a low lying fog machine, a color light projector, a door knocker electric chair device, 3 tablecloths, a tombstone mister, a tombstone marker [the ears were broken off, but for the price i didn't care], and a vampiress costume






my husband and i went to des moines the weekend before halloween. i was kind of bummed because we went hoping to do a ghost tour but when we got there they were booked. so my husband said i could go shopping instead. so we went to check out the stores. first we found a lowes. i have been in lowes before, in cedar [rapids] or [falls] last year, but they didn't do halloween. lowes had stuff 70% off, i got some strobe lights that cackle [wished they didn't cackle], some skeleton path markers, and a chair cover that is scary. i use the pathmarkers in my haunt this year. then we found a tjmax, home depot, and a micheals. i never knew micheals was like a big hobby lobby. i loved it. if it hadn't been for this forum, i never would have known to look in these stores. thanks you guys. and everyone, nice finds and way to deal

Just a heads up on Targets solar LED light set, I went back yesterday to get another set and could not find them then it dawn on me maybe they moved them in with the x-mas lights......yup they did......good news is if you find the purple and orange ones they will still scan as 75% off regardless of the full price tag below it. They are very cool and I have already install them on my Gar shack in the garden whic is year around. Now I have clear,orange, and purple lighting up. I'm gonna get one more set today.
