Good Morning Halloween Friends! I love seeing the pictures and discussions above regarding the "Halloween Creep". I myself am just waiting for Wal-Mart to start putting out Halloween stuff so that I can buy a bunch of the large plastic jack o lantern candy pails, and hopefully, buy some extras to put up in the attic to have as spares for when the new ones inevitably go brittle from the sunlight. The old ones I had lasted me 7 years! I found some online in January of these year, but they were the small ones, and while I still plan on using them for decorations outside, they don't really replace my old ones. They will be out soon though!
Folks, we are ONE DAY now, away from a huge milestone day, and that is the 100 Days to Halloween milestone that is TOMORROW!! We will have a thrilling weekend seeing ALL of the counts on this thread be below 100!
Today's high is 79 degrees, and tonight gets down in the 50's. It's gonna be that way the next 3 days! No complaints here!
Have a great Thursday, friends!
Frozen cider drinks sounds delicious, and the perfect drink for a warm/sunny Autumn day! I will keep my eyes out for something similar.There is a farm store more or less close to my house (less rather than more), and each fall they offer these frozen cider drinks. When they start making them (usually late August), then I know autumn is really here.
I was at CVS last Thursday and they had nothing out.It really seems like a lot of stores are not shy about getting their Fall/Halloween stuff out early this year. In previous years it has been a slow trickle, but this year we're not even done with July and already there's a lot of good stuff on the shelves! I still haven't seen any Halloween candy, but Snake's pictures are proof that it's out there, and I'm sure my local CVS can be counted on to break their street date and put it out early as they do every year. I just have to keep checking.![]()
I like to buy those little Mulled Cider candles and burn them all day in my office. And I love seeing all of the Fall decorations in Hobby Lobby. When we go there, my wife knows exactly where to find me when it's time to leave.A few thoughts:
I enjoy the Halloween season and seeing the kids trick-or-treat. I enjoy purchasing Halloween related food items and drinks to enjoy with my family. I also enjoy the Halloween decorations, but agree with other posters and skip the movie theater experience: too expensive for me and my fam.
Fall decorations are a plenty in my local Hobby Lobby, Michael's and soon the grocery store. I have seen some fall food items (pumpkin spice everything) and will consume some this holiday season. Yeah 'Bers. I enjoy seeing everyone here discuss the upcoming holiday season and pretty much say goodbye to the hot weather.
What are your thoughts on the hot weather? What do you like to see in the stores and consume during the Halloween/Fall season?
No kidding!Wow! I would love some of that weather right now.

Totally agree. CVS is usually the first to put out Halloween candy. I am not familiar with Walmart, but Target does jump on the Halloween train right after CVS.It really seems like a lot of stores are not shy about getting their Fall/Halloween stuff out early this year.

And the pumpkin ones too. Candle warmers are the best for the office where no flames are allowed. Love it.I like to buy those little Mulled Cider candles and burn them all day in my office.

Yup, pretty much the same thing.Is frozen cider drinks like a frozen hot chocolate? It sounds really good.
I was at our local cvs yesterday and noticed boxes of halloween candy in the corner of the store. Should be coming out soon.I was at CVS last Thursday and they had nothing out.
Hopefully soon.
I had to go to Walgreen's today and nary a sniff of fall or Halloween. Wah.I was at our local cvs yesterday and noticed boxes of halloween candy in the corner of the store. Should be coming out soon.
