miss mandy, very nice prizes....

Thanks I like how they came out, but it's kinda buggin' me how the Funniest costume prize seems more "grand" than the Best costume prize. I spent under $15 for Funniest prize and about $25 on Best prize....but it just doesn't seem that way by the looks of them :-/ I have another one of those skull mugs that I could throw in, but I don't want the two prizes to be so similar. Kinda stumped on what else I could put in the basket. I try to have a little theme (blanket, candle & ghost story book)...all ingredients for a cozy, spooky night Any ideas of what else I could add?

Another can of the cocoa mix? Or perhaps a bottle of wine?

I wanna stay away from wine as a prize. There are a couple of guests who can't/don't drink, so I'd feel horrible if they happened to win. I think I might just stick the other skull mug in there with some pumpkin spice coffee.

MissMandy, those look great and the add'l skull mug & coffee sounds good.

So far I've accumulated quite a bit, now I just need to organize. I'm going to have different tiers depending on what the prize is for. I have everything from skull bottle openers, candy (wax fangs, Reese cups, big Halloween boxes of Dots, Nerds, Boogers, Ouiji mints), drink mixes, Guiness pint glasses, candles, movies (old classic horror and new Halloween comedies). And stuff for treat bags for all...such as the classic spider rings. ...yeah, I've been picking up things here and there for quite a while now.

I'm doing a Poe themed party so I've also ordered a couple items more related to the theme...a raven /nevermore bag, shirt, and a "Dream" quote journal. I may be going overboard, but I can save some of the stuff for next year if turnout is lower than expected.
Someone mentioned the mini liquor bottles...I like that one...may have to steal that idea.
