With Halloween fast approaching the shops are stocked with spooky stuff, so it’s never too early to start picking up what you need for this years fright fest! I was at the Gerrard Square dollar store last night and I noticed that they had a lot of Halloween makeup, costumes, decorations, treats & more! And all for devilish dollar deals too!!!
I picked up a NYC Halloween Makeup set that included colourful falsies (lashes), black lipgloss and fake black nails with a cool spider web design on them! And yes, it was only a buck too!! Now’s the time to start looking for your Halloween costume essentials. You may even be able to get away with just using the dollar store completely! Please be aware that some of their masks really reeked, so I don’t recommend wearing them because the plastic, or rubber, may not have cured properly. Even with the make up too, make sure that it’s non toxic before applying them to yourself or your kiddies. You never know what you may get with some of those bargain shops if you don’t check! Value Village and other thrift shops are also great places for costumes! You can even rent too and there are a ton of costume shops right here in Toronto too! Don’t forget to check your local newspapers, Kijiji and Craigslist for even more evil selections! Ebay is another shop for freakishly fab dress up gear for our favorite hellish holiday! Here are a few auctions below, even if it’s just to give you ideas!
