Hi everybody!
Just to let everyone know that TK Maxx (TJ Maxx in USA) will be putting out their Halloween merchandise in August! Their stock is amazing! I bought so much stuff last year and CAN'T WAIT for this years goodies. I am hoping they will be out even sooner here in the UK. Last year I only realised at the end of August and never even knew that TK Maxx stocked Halloween stuff. I was soooo happy when I discovered their existence! I am sure that TJ Maxx in the States will have them out even earlier there...
One tip: I would recommend buying stuff when you see it as it sells out FAST! Some stuff they only get 1 or 2 of each in, so it is definately wise to buy when you see. I'm glad I did last year. I also went to various stores to see if I could pick up different stuff. There were a few different things on offer but not a great deal. I will be doing the same this year and am counting the days down...... I hope there will be even more range and much bigger! I'm planning on spending at least £300 or so on goodies!
Other places worth noting are: ASDA (always the best supermarket for Halloween, although I was a little disappointed last year but forgave them cause they stocked the Witch ''Spirit Ball'' from the States! Hope their range is better this year..), Garden centres, the 99p Store, Poundland, Sainsbury's (a good range last year). The other supermarkets were pretty naff, inc. Tesco! The worst was Morrisons, which had absolutely nothing.
I made a list last year of when stuff starts to appear in stores (in the U.K.), I can type it out here if I get enough interest...
Talk soon

PS. I recommend this great DVD from Martha Stewart:

Hiya,
Yes, Martha is very cool, I love her because she loves Halloween - this is how my love for her developed! I just also bought her Halloween CD too, which is also excellent! Very cheap from the Amazon 'New & Used' section. The Halloween stuff she does on her shows are real cool, the DVD shows alot.

G-d help me; I love that wicked woman!
All you that doth my grave pass by,
As you are now so once was I,
As I am now so you must be,
Prepare for death & follow me.

I like her as well. She's like the MacGyver of arts & crafts. She makes anything come out amazing.
