Scarily Frugal Halloween Tips & Tricks

Between costumes, candy and decorations, Halloween can be an expensive holiday. Check out these great resources for some tips and tricks to have a spook-tacular Halloween that doesn’t bust your budget.

Deal Seeking Mom has a great post on 5 Ways to Save on Halloween Costumes. I love her tip about swapping costumes and if I were a little more crafty I’d try making my own costumes. Maybe next year.

Sound Money Matters also has 10 Cheap Halloween Costume Ideas for Adults and Kids. She has great ideas for turning your kids into a superhero, a cowboy, a princess or even a roll of Lifesavers.

Check out Simple Sapien for some fab advice on How to Make a Cheap Halloween Decoration. I love these trash bag jack-o-lanterns!

Thrifty Thoughts has the scoop on how to get some fun (and free!) Halloween pumpkin stencils. A must have!

Or, download a free ebook called Halloween on a Dime: Frighteningly Frugal Fun for 36 pages of spooky tips, tricks, recipes and games.
