Halloween Is Here

Is it just me, or are holiday decorations going out earlier and earlier than they have in the past. I walked into a drug store today to see them placing up three aisles of Halloween goods. It’s hard for me to tell since I’ve been in Japan for a time and usually miss all this – especially Halloween since it isn’t celebrated out there.
It’s the (stretched out) beginning of the holiday shopping season so everyone which can really be a budget buster if you aren’t careful. For those that want to get a heads up on saving money on the costs associated with Halloween, you can take a look at a few articles I wrote in years past (which I will have to update)
Yeah, I don’t understand why halloween candy starts going out about this time.. it’s almost TWO MONTHS until Halloween and the candy will not be fresh anymore. Why bother buying it. Most people I bet eat it and then have to buy more.. sneaky candy maker people!
Yeah and what really irks me is that I am a procrastinator and am still getting last minute school supplies, but they’re clearing everything out now for Halloween. The early bird gets the worm….
Costco had Christmas decorations out this weekend in addition to Halloween ones. That’s just plain silly.
