walkingcorpse- what do you think is best to try doing? Do they even mark down that night, or must I wait until a certain time in the morning?

To the OP- gigantic web? The one with a giant spider? Any pics?
Pics of these?- Larger skeleton with red lights inside was like $10.00?
A ghost that dances to Ghostbusters?

I know you are waiting for Nov 1st for buying stuff, but you are assuming that the stuff you want will be there, and also you can't really enjoy that stuff you are buying till November 1st which is when Halloween night was done for, and the whole month beforehand. The only things that I will wait till 50% are things I'm only half-interested in, and if I get them, that's fine. Otherwise, forget it. For my family, it always seems like stuff we want are always gone, so I can't really wait that long. Besides, Walgreen's usually has great prices compared to the other stores. Even Wal-Mart or Target are more money than Walgreen's Halloween, and they have ads too. And once awhile through the email, Walgreens has $5 off of either $20 or $25 worth of stuff.

I never assume, lol, cuz' uh, you know what that makes you

Im saying whats left (if anything) that looks cool Ill go in and stock up. Im the same way as you, Ill buy it if I REALLY like it at full cost but I already have most things they are selling so anything else is just bonus.

I dunno. Stopped by Walgreens today and thought their selection was pretty poor. A bunch of crappy stuff. I really wanted a couple of those brown latex bats they used to carry for 8 bucks each but they don't have them this year. Another place to cross off the list!

I got one today! The package definitely seemed more substantial than the one they had last year, there was a styrofoam skull & stuff in there -- I'll see if I can open it up and take some pics to post here! Then I got a giant spider at Michaels to go with it.

Also got the werewolf!!! And a neat animated tombstone that looked like it was left over from last year, had two gruesome hands scratching down the front and leaving bloody marks -- but no batteries so I couldn't tell what it did but they sold it to me for $9.99.

I wasn't really interested in the Jack & Jane boxes, but I can confirm that they only had TWO of each. If you want one, you should buy it if you see it and not wait . . .

Later went to my favorite Wallgreens that usually has bookoos of stuff, and they didn't have ONE THING out yet, but candy and that animated candy dish. But I'll be back . . .

Will take pics asap . . .

Okay -- I'm just editing this post -- here's the giant spider victim -- I was a little disappointed when I opened the package but it looks much better in the photo -- I think if I work with it and dress it up a little it will look pretty good -- with the right lighting, too. But if this is the same spider victim that is being advertised on the internet, $20 is all it's worth, I wouldn't pay more than that for it!! I just think you could probably spend a little more and make your own much better one! Terra has a great tutorial that I want to try -- "animated spider victim"

Went to one Walgreens this morning...and not much at all..of course they were still putting it out . This afternoon went to a diff one and SCORED !!!

Bought one each of the Jack/Jane in the boxes , a severed clown head, a clown hanging prop and a giant lighted pumpkin for 19.99...man I love Jack-O-Lanterns ! ;D

The Walgreens' near me had a TON of candy, all on one gondola, some pumpkin pails, and that's all; I'm guessing they'll be done by next week, most likely

^^^Geesh, you are getting a lot for ONLY $20!
