We All Scream For Halloween Fun In 2018!
Are you getting into the fun of Halloween yet? So many people are, myself included. I am seeing more Halloween outdoor decor than I ever have and it sure is fun! I am not traditionally a Halloween fanatic. It has always been fun to go out to the Oneonta Halloween parade and see everyone dressed up and of course taking the kids out trick or treating was always enjoyable as well. Now that my kids are grown, my Halloween enthusiasm has shifted to decorating my property. Let's face it, it's a holiday that is a lot cheaper than other holidays. Lights and scary props for the lawn/house are inexpensive and fun to look, at so why not?
Here's something interesting...according to the National Retail Federation's annual survey, 2018 Halloween spending is expected to be $9 billion! That's a whole lot of money and here's what people are spending it on:
- candy
- costumes (including pets)
- decorating
The average person will spend $86.79 on Halloween this year. So get in on the Halloween fun and see what all the buzz is about. At least it won't break the bank!
